We are back on the millions and billions of OpenAI equity that employees have interest in.
I am just going to break from telling you what Molo is saying to say what my personal impression was from sitting here all these weeks: Everyone was improvising. There was no plan. This is especially true of “the blip.” I do wonder if there’s a way to incorporate that into Musk’s case. Anyway, Molo just referenced an exhibit he didn’t have handy, asked for an exhibit number, and then said he’d get it for the jury late.r I have to say, I know Musk’s team is smaller than OpenAI’s, but this might have been a moment to call in another lawyer to handle the close. Someone who could have prepped better, perhaps. Marc Toberoff, who’s theoretically a key figure on this team, hasn’t stood up to do a single thing. Maybe this could have been his moment, I don’t know!

Sam Altman's testimony at Elon Musk's OpenAI trial takes odd turn
Is OpenAI's CEO trustworthy? Did he lie to the Senate? And what's with the emoji?

We are now getting cross-examination from Musk’s lawyer.
She seems confused by a CTO not knowing what revenue had been generated. Scott noted he was not the chief revenue officer. He seemed amused.

John Coates, OpenAI’s expert witness, is running a demolition derby on Musk’s expert witness.
Some highlights: * (while looking at a chart that the plaintiffs showed the jury) I paraphrase but: I don’t know how he thought his slide was a fair representation of anything,…

‘Musk v. Altman’ Closing Arguments
Link to:…
- ·
Molo has begun his closing statement for Elon Musk, who is in China.
“He’s sorry he could not be here,” Molo says. He’s thumping on how important jury service is, which is never a good sign in a closing statement.
- ·
Molo is suggesting that Greg Brockman’s conduct makes him untrustworthy.
“17 times during his testimony I had to ask him to answer the question,” Molo says. Dude, you don’t want this. If they’re considering conduct, they’re considering your client’s…

I see why Molo is leaning on the spoken testimony.
Look, this case is full of liars. It just is! The biggest problem for his side is the contemporaneous written evidence.

Ah we are back at the museum store funding the museum.
Molo agrees that OpenAI needed money for compute. He is annoyed that a “brainstorming session” is being cast as evidence that Musk wanted to abandon OpenAI’s non-profit mission.

Molo calls Shivon Zilis, mother of Musk’s children, “the most even-keeled, even-tempered witness at the trial.”
I disagree! I think that’s Ilya Sutskever, frankly. Those two did the least amount of beefing on the cross-exam, it’s true. But I am against the Sutskever erasure here — not least…

Musk’s early money meant “a great, great deal,” Molo says. Inarguable!
That money grew OpenAI “so the defendants could do these things that they’re doing now, that they shouldn’t do.” Sam Altman, seated in the courtroom, looks confused by this.

Molo is now suggesting that the “crown jewels” of OpenAI are its IP.
And that the “important constraints” of the capped-profit structure in the first two Microsoft investments did not breach the charitable trust. However, the 2023…

This is kind of choppy.
Molo keeps interrupting himself to restate things or say things like “remember the residuals?” It’s really important in closing to tell a straightforward, easy-to-follow story…

During our break, the jurors were out of the room, and the lawyers were beefing again.
During his speech, Molo told the jury he wasn’t asking for money. That is in fact not true — otherwise I wouldn’t be sitting through phase 2 of the trial next week. “You slipped…

Molo is now attempting to make a case against Microsoft.
So far he’s got “they’re a for-profit corporation,” “they know Musk was a co-founder,” and “they read the announcement OpenAI existed.” This is easily the thinnest part of a very…

For all of the very irritating testimony about “the blip,” Molo hasn’t convincingly connected it to his case.
In all that chaos, Microsoft did suggest board members. But OpenAI didn’t take those suggestions — except one, well after the crisis. I don’t know man, I don’t really understand…

Molo is done presenting Musk’s closing argument.
I do wonder how this would have played in the hands of a better lawyer. Molo’s book report did not overwhelm me with confidence in his case, particularly because a lot of his…
