Elon Musk has withdrawn his lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman, accusing the company of breach of contract and allegedly abandoning its mission to create artificial intelligence technology for the benefit of humanity.
Musk's decision to withdraw the lawsuit, filed in California state court in February, came just a day before a hearing was scheduled at which a judge was scheduled to consider OpenAI's request to dismiss the case, and a day after Musk stated that he «will ban Apple devices from his companies if the company integrates OpenAI technology into the iPhone and Mac at the OS level».
His lawsuit alleged that OpenAI violated an agreement reached with Musk and other founding members, who pledged to make OpenAI a non-profit organization and keep its technology open.
OpenAI denied Musk's claims shortly after he filed the lawsuit, saying the billionaire wanted «total control» over the company by merging it with Tesla. The company also said that no agreement had been signed with Musk.
