Regarding the OpenAI case, the judge & jury never actually ruled on the merits of the case, just on a calendar technicality.
There is no question to anyone following the case in detail that Altman & Brockman did in fact enrich themselves by stealing a charity. The only question is WHEN they did it!
I will be filing an appeal with the Ninth Circuit, because creating a precedent to loot charities is incredibly destructive to charitable giving in America.
OpenAI was founded to benefit all of humanity.
3 new models from @xai's Grok creative stack are live on OpenRouter:
• Grok Imagine Image Quality: photoreal image generation and editing
• Grok Imagine Video: short clips from text, image, or reference
• Grok Voice TTS 1.0: 5 voices across 20+ languages
More on each below 🧵
Elon Musk’s lawyer, Marc Toberoff, on today’s verdict in the OpenAI case:
“I have a one-word reaction: Appeal. This war is not over. We firmly believe what happened with OpenAI was wrong on a very basic level that you can't raise millions of dollars in a publicly subsidized charity, and when it suits you, just turn into a for-profit operation where the officers and directors of the charity enrich themselves to the tune of billions, and that's what actually happened here, and that's just wrong."
Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers basically waved off Elon’s OpenAI appeal, saying the jury’s statute of limitations ruling is tough to overturn.
An activist judge letting Sam Altman skate after he hijacked a nonprofit charity — originally pledged to benefit all humanity — and turned it into his $150B+ personal for-profit empire? That’s not justice.
Stealing a charity for profit is not OK. You don’t get to rewrite the mission, pocket the upside, and hide behind “time limits” while betraying the public trust. OpenAI’s founding promise was destroyed in broad daylight.
This makes zero sense.
the team did an internal test of this model last week
the whole company (bar a few exceptions) had all their cursor chats redirected to composer 2.5 for like 2 days.
i didn't even notice, which I think is testament to the progress of this model. go use it, its very good.
We've gotten really really good at RL. Composer 2.5 is fighting well-above its weight class.
Very excited for the next release as we scale model sizes and FLOPs with @SpaceXAI!
These kids are serial criminals with a callous disregard for life. If they are ever released from jail they will surely harm again.
Austin PD, Travis Co. Sheriff Office & Manor PD did their job. Texas Dept. of Public Safety aided them.
The DA & Court must do their job and keep these criminals behind bars.

Elon Musk on “Suicidal Empathy”:
Gad Saad has a good way to describe it
“Suicidal empathy” - where you prey upon people’s empathy so much that it becomes suicidal to your own country and culture
You feel sorry for the criminals, but show zero empathy for the victims
This is why someone arrested 47 times for violent offenses gets released and then murders somebody
We've become so blindly compassionate toward predators that "we're actually allowing our women to get r@ped and our children to get killed"
We should have empathy. But that empathy must go to the victims - not the criminals
This suicidal empathy has gone too far
