I'm curious why you think that creating a for-profit subsidiary is objectionable, since it is extremely common for large nonprofits. A good example for this forum would be Mozilla,…

Elon's purchase offer was in 2025, after the success of ChatGPT showed that OpenAI's IP (much if not most of it developed after 2019) could be commercially valuable. I think it is …

I think it would be helpful for you to clarify which part of the chain you found objectionable: - in 2015, OpenAI was founded as a Delaware nonprofit - in 2017, OpenAI discovered t…

Thanks, dang! The blog post[1] might be a better source than the twitter thread. Also I regret my typo above (lab -> labs) but too late now! [1] https://cursor.com/blog/composer-2-…

Correct, Musk based his claims on the 2023 Microsoft deal. The 2025 recapitalization was discussed at trial, but it was ancillary since all that changed was the existing for-profit…

The statute of limitations is not a trivial issue. Defendants have rights just as much as plaintiffs do, and our justice system does not allow plaintiffs to unreasonably delay in b…
