## Resource

Elon Musk escalates his two-year lawsuit against OpenAI with a new filing seeking $134 billion for OpenAI’s nonprofit and aiming to remove Sam Altman and Greg Brockman from leadership, strip their equity and benefits, claw back alleged “ill-gotten gains” including from Microsoft, and potentially unwind OpenAI’s for-profit conversion back into a public charity.
