Molo asked a very narrow question about texts or emails about removing Musk from the board. Then he accused Brockman of making up the explanation after the fact because of the trial. OpenAI’s lawyer pulled out two sentences from the same entry: “real decision is fire Elon” and “We seem converged on the ‘fire Elon’ route.” Pretty good from OpenAI’s lawyers, and very annoying / misleading from Molo.

Elon Musk co-founded OpenAI in 2015 and sued the company, President Greg Brockman and CEO Sam Altman in 2024.

The trial between Elon Musk and OpenAI is continuing into the second week with Greg Brockman taking the stand.
