Why Sam Altman and his former hero Elon Musk are taking their toxic feud to court

The long-standing public feud between Elon Musk and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman moves to a California federal courtroom for a month-long trial. Musk alleges Altman, OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman, and Microsoft swindled him out of millions by reneging on OpenAI's original non-profit mission to monetize the company, seeking billions in wrongful gains and a leadership shakeup; OpenAI counters that Musk is motivated by jealousy and regret after leaving the organization in 2018, aiming to derail a key rival in the race to artificial general intelligence (AGI).
