A federal judge weighed in Tuesday on a long-brewing legal feud between billionaires Elon Musk and Sam Altman over OpenAI, suggesting she’s unlikely to halt the company’s plan to restructure for now.

A federal judge signaled Tuesday that some parts of Elon Musk’s lawsuit attempting to block Sam Altman-led OpenAI from becoming a for-profit entity could go to trial – and said Musk would have to personally take the stand and testify.

Musk’s request to block OpenAI’s conversion is the latest move in a grudge match between the world's richest person and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.

Elon Musk and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman are fighting on X about Stargate, the infrastructure project to build data centers for OpenAI in the U.S.

Since then, Musk hasn’t hidden his anger with Altman and OpenAI. He’s currently suing the company over its decision to become a for-profit corporation, and he regularly trolls the company on X—the platform he bought for $44 billion back in 2022. All of which is why the past week has been hilarious.

The injunction Musk asked for would freeze OpenAI's transformation to a more conventional, public benefit for-profit company, just as it's in talks to raise as much as $40 billion in a funding round

A preliminary injunction stopping OpenAI’s conversion to a for-profit company is unlikely in a case of “billionaires versus billionaires,” said the judge.

Elon Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI's transition to a for-profit entity may go to trial, as ruled by U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers. Musk co-founded OpenAI with Sam Altman but left before its rise.
