Elon Musk digs tweets where Sam Altman said he doesn’t like Trump ahead of their AI case

By: bitcoin ethereum news|2025/05/10 17:00:20

Even after Sam Altman’s OpenAI gave up on becoming a for-profit company, Elon Musk is still at their necks. This time, he reminds Altman of his stance on Trump in 2016. However, Altman did not sit still as usual; he fought back with a tweet against Musk published in 2022. Musk reposted a tweet that Altman wrote in 2016. Altman had said, “I am voting against Trump because I believe the principles he stands for represent an unacceptable threat to America.” In response, Altman replied with a tweet from 2022 that reported Musk saying that the ex-president should “hang up his hat.” Altman argues, “We were both wrong, or at least I certainly was, but that was from 2016, and this was from 2022.” Musk’s xAI is a competitor to OpenAI, but it hasn’t caught up yet. xAI bought Musk’s social media site X last month. In February, Musk made an offer to buy OpenAI that wasn’t asked for, offering $97.4 billion but Altman turned it down. Musk’s lawyer, Marc Toberoff, said in a statement, “Had OpenAI’s Board genuinely considered the bid, as they were obligated to do, they would have seen just how serious it was.” Musk had also said that he doesn’t trust Altman to lead the biggest AI in the world. To that end, his efforts are still directed to, if not acquired, the company to fight against, especially when he is still under Trump’s administration. Elon Musk to go ahead with the fight against OpenAI After Elon Musk, Meta, and others fought against it, OpenAI chairman Bret Taylor said the company gave up on its plan to change from a nonprofit to a for-profit business. However, Musk plans to proceed with his highly watched lawsuit against OpenAI. Under OpenAI’s newly proposed plan, its non-profit parent would continue to control the for-profit business and become a major shareholder. Musk’s lawyer said the announcement did not clarify important details about the claimed “non-profit control” arrangement. On the other hand, OpenAI said, “Elon continuing with his baseless lawsuit only proves that it was always a bad-faith attempt to slow us down.” OpenAI sued Musk back in April, and the company said Musk was trying to hurt its image and relationships with investors and customers on purpose. A federal judge in Oakland has set a trial for March 2026 between Musk and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. It will be a very important fight over the future of AI ethics, nonprofit governance, and corporate responsibility. Meanwhile, Sam Altman claimed none of the outside pressure mattered. “We’re all obsessed with our mission. You’re all obsessed with Elon,” he said. Sam Altman asks US lawmakers not to make rules that can slow down US AI Other than Musk’s fight, Altman is fighting another fight. He said America’s AI efforts shouldn’t be slowed down by rules that aren’t thought through. He said this on Capitol Hill. The hearing was about beating China to become the world leader in AI. When asked by Sen. Ted Cruz asked Altman how close China is to being as good at AI as the U.S. He said, “ It’s hard to say how far ahead we are, but I would say not a huge amount of time.” He said he thought OpenAI, Google, and other models were the best models in the world. But he also said that to keep winning, we would need “sensible regulation” that “does not slow the US down. However, China’s Alibaba said that its Qwen3 is better than OpenAI’s o3. Altman also said that the American spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship is special. He advised that for now, the US should only do the things that have worked in the past and not mess up.
