Here’s your Day 3 recap of EVERYTHING that happened yesterday to prep for Day 4 (TODAY) of the Musk v. OpenAI trial. ELON CROSS EXAMINATION: - OpenAI lawyers hammered him on the 2017 power struggle he lost: board control demands, cutting off funding, and talent raids on OpenAI while still a board member - Courtroom tension high: Judge reprimanded someone for photographing Musk. Greg Brockman sat behind his team giving Elon the cold stare the whole time. - Musk visibly frustrated… kept calling questions misleading and claiming “I don’t recall” on key details. KEY EVIDENCE: - Sept 2017 emails: Musk demanded 4 board seats for “unequivocal initial control” (cofounders got 3 total). Ilya rejected it fearing too much power for Elon. - Spring 2017: Musk stopped $5M quarterly payments (part of his $1B pledge) - Oct 2017: Actively recruited Andrej Karpathy to Tesla (“OpenAI guys gonna want to kill me”) + told Neuralink to hire straight from OpenAI - Feb 2018 text to Shivon Zillis: “actively try to move three or four people” to Tesla while keeping relations “close and friendly” - Musk’s reply: Hiring them is legally required. “You can’t have some cabal that stops people from working where they want.” TODAY: Continued cross of Musk + expected testimony from Jared Birchall & Greg Brockman. Deeper dive on Zillis incoming.
