Elon Musk’s IA firm, XAI, has filed a new legal action against Openai, accusing the Chatgpt creator of systematic poaching personnel and theft of proprietary technology.
The main dishes to remember:
- XAI continued Openai, alleging that he had poached key staff to access confidential technology behind his Grok chatbot.
- The trial appoints the former engineer Xuechen Li, who is already under an order of the court, restricting the work linked to the AI in Openai.
- The case degenerates the current quarrel between Musk and Openai in the middle of fierce competition for the best talents in AI and IP.
Founded before the American district court of the North District of California, the complaint alleys that Optai is engaged in a “coordinated, unjust and illegal campaign” to recruit XAI key staff in order to access sensitive data related to his Grok chatbot.
Legal action says OPENAI has targeted people with direct knowledge of the source, infrastructure and business plans of XAI, in particular the former engineer Jimmy Fraiture and a senior finance manager.
Ex-XAI Xuechen engineer named in the secret commercial trial
The trial also appoints ex-employee Xuechen Li, who faces a separate trial for an alleged commercial secrecy.
An order of the court rendered earlier this month temporarily prevented Li from working on AI technologies in Openai.
The Musk team argues that Optai incited these people to inflict confidentiality agreements in violation of employment obligations.
Openai denied allegations, declaring: “We have no tolerance for any confidentiality violation, nor any interest in the trade secrets of other laboratories.” He also described Musk’s actions as a “current harassment”.
XAI, however, claims to have discovered the poaching program during his internal investigation into Li’s allegedly alleged misconduct.
An exchange of emails included in the deposit presents a frank response from a former XAI framework to a legal warning: “Smeurez my cock”.
This marks the last climbing of the longtime quarrel between Musk and Openai, a company he co -founded in 2015 but which left in 2018 after failing to take control.
Musk has repeatedly accused Openai and CEO Sam Altman of having abandoned the group’s original non -profit mission in favor of a commercial gain thanks to partnerships with companies like Microsoft.
The case adds another layer to the intensification race for the domination of the AI, where the technology giants are in aggressively competition to secure the best talents and IP.
Elon Musk sells XAI in an agreement of $ 80 billion
In March, Elon Musk transferred ownership of his XAI STARTUP PLANTUE XAI to an All Stock Agreement announced on March 28, evaluating XAI at $ 80 billion and X to $ 33 billion, including $ 12 billion in debt.
This decision coincided with a judge rejecting Musk’s attempt to reject a collective appeal accusing him of having deceived the shareholders during his original Twitter acquisition.
Critics argue that the transaction increases the legal issues of Musk and its companies, which suggests that XAI could now be entangled in existing disputes.
Some, like Adam Cochran of Cinneamhain Ventures, accuse the musk of inflating Xai’s evaluation to unload X while masking investors’ losses, even by suggesting that the agreement may be a means of transferring user data between entities.
Despite the concerns, Musk insists that fusion will improve the synergies between Xai platform and XAI technology, in particular the Grok chatbot, which claims to exceed the first versions of Chatgpt.
Supporters say that Grok could position XAI as a serious competitor in AI’s race, although skepticism around the $ 80 billion assessment remains.
