Altman shared an online form for those interested in attending to RSVP, and said Codex, OpenAI&#039;s coding agent, would help the company choose people from the replies.<\/p>\n<p>Registration closed quickly, and Altman later said that he&#039;d plan bigger parties in the future.<\/p>\n<p>It&#039;s unlikely Musk threw his name into the ring for one of those limited invites, but Altman said on X that his erstwhile OpenAI cofounder &quot;could come if he wants to.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;The world needs more love,&quot; Altman added.<\/p>\n<p>The kindness came days after US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers, who is presiding over their legal fight, warned both tech executives to &quot;control your propensity to use social media to make things worse outside this courtroom.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Musk and Altman have been locked in an ideological battle for years.<\/p>\n<p>The tech moguls cofounded OpenAI in 2015, but Musk left in 2018 after disagreements over the company&#039;s direction and leadership, particularly around safety.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, Musk has repeatedly criticized OpenAI \u2014 especially for what he has characterized as a shift away from an open-source nonprofit mission to one focused on commercialization and profit \u2014 while launching his own competing AI company, xAI.<\/p>\n<p>Their rivalry has escalated from public jabs into serious legal disputes. Musk sued OpenAI, Altman, and other cofounders in March 2024 over the company&#039;s direction. Musk says OpenAI and its other founders broke their original agreement.<\/p>\n<p>In late April, the dispute moved into a high-profile federal trial in Oakland, where Musk and Altman are now testifying. The proceedings have already grown tense, with Musk clashing with OpenAI&#039;s lawyer before the judge stepped in.<\/p>\n<p>Read the original article on Business Insider<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpenAI cofounders Sam Altman and Elon Musk are in the middle of a court battle.
