TL;DR

In a 2026 filing, Elon Musk argues OpenAI and Microsoft owe him as much as $134 billion in damages for alleged "wrongful gains," saying he provided roughly 60% of OpenAI’s seed funding (including $38 million) and helped drive its startup trajectory and valuation; the lawsuit, dating to 2024 over OpenAI’s nonprofit status, seeks restitution for gains the filing claims were misappropriated by the defendants.
