The dramatic case between Openai and his estranged co -founder, billionaire Elon Musk, shows no sign of the increase.

In a filing WednesdayAttorneys from Openai and the other defendants in the case, including CEO Sam Altman, called on Musk to end the defendants ‘further illegal and unfair conduct’ and ‘held’ responsible for the damage he had already done to the defendants.

“Openai is resilient,” says the submission of a counterpar. “But Musk’s actions did a toll. As his campaign continues, greater damage is threatened – to Openai’s ability to rule in the service of his mission, to the relationships that are essential to promote the mission, and to the public interest (…) Musk’s continued attacks on Openai, which has lately come to disrupt the future of Openai. “

Attorneys for Musk did not immediately respond to TechCrunch’s request for comment.

Elon’s uninterrupted actions against us are just a bad faith tactic to delay Openai and take control of the leading AI innovations to his personal benefit. Today we opposed to stop him.

Musk’s case against Openai accuses the commencement of abandoning his non -profit mission to ensure that his AI research benefits all mankind. Openai was founded as a non-profit organization in 2015, but in 2019 converted to a ‘limited profitable’ structure, and is now trying to restructure again in a public benefits corporation.

Musk sought a preliminary order to stop Openai’s transition to a profitable organization. In March, a federal judge rejected the request – but allowed the case to go to a jury trial in the spring of 2026.

Musk, once an important supporter of Openai, is perhaps the biggest adversary. The interests are high for Openai, which reportedly has to complete its lucrative conversion by 2025 or renouncing the capital it has collected over the past few months.

A group of organizations, including nonprofits and labor groups such as the California Teamsters, this week requested California Attorney General Rob Bonta to stop Openai from becoming a profitable entity, claiming that the company “did not protect its charity assets” and is active to undermine its charity. “

Encode, the non-profit organization that sponsored California’s SB 1047 AI security legislation, expressed similar concerns in an Amicus command submitted in December.

Openai said the repentance would not preserve its profit arm and bring it with resources to spend on ‘charity initiatives’ in sectors such as healthcare, education and science.
