Elon Musk clashes with OpenAI's attorney on his third day of testimony at high-stakes trial
"Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers stated, 'This is not a trial on the safety risks of artificial intelligence. This is not a trial on whether or not AI has damaged humanity.' She emphasized that the focus should remain on the specific issues at hand."
"Musk expressed frustration with the cross-examination, claiming that opposing attorney William Savitt was asking misleading questions designed to confuse him and the jury, particularly regarding the nature of OpenAI's agreements."
The trial involves Elon Musk's accusations against Sam Altman regarding OpenAI's shift from a nonprofit to a for-profit entity. Musk claims Altman betrayed promises to maintain the nonprofit's mission. Tensions escalated during testimony, with discussions about AI safety and the future of humanity. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers emphasized that the trial would not address AI's risks.
