OpenAI Trial: Musk and Altman Under Scrutiny as Leadership Stories Unfold
TL;DR

The proceedings also touch on Musk’s personal ties to Shivon Zilis (including a sperm-donor arrangement) and on OpenAI’s governance moves, such as Greg Brockman’s large stake and the company’s IPO prospects amid scrutiny of Altman’s outside investments.
