Elon Musk wanted Mark Zuckerberg to join his $97.4 billion deal to buy OpenAI
Elon Musk tried to cancel in Mark Zuckerberg for $ 97.4 billion to take over Sam Altman’s Openai, but the Meta founder did not come to the ship, a court file on Thursday.
Given that two technology billionaires come to the public and even have come to oppose each other in a cage fight, the movement can be called surprisingly.
The court filed by the Chatgpt manufacturer in front of the northern region of the California Federal Court came as part of the ongoing legal war between Musk and Openai.
Openai said Musk describes Mark Zuckerberg as one of the people he had communicated with a potential to finance an agreement to buy the Chatgpt manufacturer.
Openai claimed that Tesla CEO announced his communication with Zuckerberg during sworn interrogations.
What did Openai say in court?
The company, known for its best AI Chatbot Chatgpt, sought instructions to order the meta platforms to produce any form of communication about a document and Openai.
He also sought orders to disclose the documents on the real or potential restructuring or re -capitalization of Openai.
Openai, “Meta’s musk or other bid holders or other bid holders and other bidders, including other bidders, including communication or internal communications, including the internal communications, will shed light on motivations,” he said.
Neither Zuckerberg nor Meta did not sign a letter of intention, or Openai said in the file, Openai filed an offer of $ 97.4 billion.
Openai officially rejected Musk’s offer in February.
Meta answers
In the same court file, Meta asked the court to reject the court of Openai.
He said Openai should directly call AI Startup Xai, a rival of Musk and Chatgpt.
“Meta’s own communication is not related to this action about the restructuring or re -capitalization of Openai (even if it has been narrowed), Met Meta said.
“Openai, if the plaintiffs are looking for meta documents, such documents are not related to this action,” he added.
In February this year, Elon Musk and some other investors made an undesirable proposal to seize the control of the non -profit holding company that controlled Openai.
Sam Altman quickly rejected the offer in X, “No thank you, but if you want, we will buy Twitter for $ 9.74 billion”.
