Busy man. IIRC, Musk was one of the initial investors in OpenAI, based on the understanding that it was meant to be a not-for-profit venture.
You know FTX had one a couple of year ago, just sayin' ....
I heard on the top of the hour news that Altman already said, “absolutely not”.
What now?

Personal life
Altman has been a vegetarian since childhood.[97]
Altman is openly gay.[98][99][100] He disclosed his sexuality at the age of 17[98] in high school,[99][100] where he spoke out after some students objected to a National Coming Out Day speaker.[98][101] He dated Loopt co-founder Nick Sivo for nine years. They broke up shortly after the company was acquired in 2012.[99]
Altman married engineer Oliver Mulherin in January 2024,[102] at their estate in Hawaii;[103] the pair also live in San Francisco’s Russian Hill neighborhood and often spend weekends in Napa, California.[100][104] They committed to giving away most of their wealth by signing the Giving Pledge in May 2024.[105]
Altman is an apocalypse preparer.[9][106] He said in 2016: “I have guns, gold, potassium iodide, antibiotics, batteries, water, gas masks from the Israel Defense Forces, and a big patch of land in Big Sur I can fly to.”[9]
In January 2025, Altman’s sister Ann Altman filed a lawsuit alleging sexual abuse by Altman in U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Missouri in St. Louis. The lawsuit alleges that the abuse started when Ann Altman was aged 3 and Sam Altman was 12.[107] Sam Altman, along with his mother Connie and younger brothers Max and Jack, issued a joint statement on X denying the allegations, describing them as “utterly untrue”.[108][109][110]
Could be a win-win. Personally I’ve found X’s Grok to be a bit more accurate and useful.
That’s just not fair! It would be like Henry Ford offering to buy Messerschmitt AG (great fighter planes) and Krupp (Panzers) in the middle of the war.
