'I thought he was going to hit me,' OpenAI co-founder says of Musk

OpenAI co-founder and president Greg Brockman testified in Oakland federal court during the trial between Elon Musk and OpenAI, recalling a 2017 heated meeting where Musk reacted aggressively after his bid for greater control over the non-profit was rejected, leading Musk to cut funding. Brockman also confirmed Musk was aware of OpenAI’s plans to shift to a for-profit model, and addressed former board member Shivon Zilis—who has four children with Musk—stating the company trusted her to manage conflicts until she left in 2023 when Musk launched competing AI firm xAI.
