Elon Musk poised to withdraw acquisition proposal of OpenAI if board confirms no transformation into profit-seeking entity.

Elon Musk’s legal representative has submitted court documents regarding the proposal to acquire OpenAI’s Non-Profit business for a staggering $9.74 billion. The intention stated is to withdraw the acquisition offer if OpenAI’s board can maintain the company as a non-profit entity and refrain from converting it into a for-profit company.

This document confirms Musk’s serious commitment to acquiring OpenAI’s Non-Profit business and providing appropriate returns to investors by exchanging assets worth $9.74 billion. This highlights the conflict between Musk and OpenAI, as well as CEO Sam Altman, who had previously filed a lawsuit to prevent the transformation of OpenAI into a more profit-focused company. Altman maintains that there will be no sale of OpenAI and ensures that the structure of OpenAI will prevent anyone other than a single entity from owning it.
