Musk Raises the Stakes in Lawsuit Against OpenAI

Elon Musk just dialed the drama up to eleven. In a fresh court filing, he's demanding the removal of CEO Sam Altman and President Greg Brockman from their leadership roles. Musk claims he was tricked into donating $38 million under the guise of a nonprofit mission that’s now akin to a Microsoft-backed money machine.

He’s not just asking for his cash back. Musk wants to unwind the for-profit restructuring and redirect $150 billion in potential damages to OpenAI’s charity. OpenAI says it's a harassment campaign driven by ego and a desire to slow down a competitor.

Jury selection kicks off April 27, 2026. On top of everything, Musk is now accusing OpenAI of training models on YouTube data without permission. This thing has gone from boardroom drama to a full-blown war over ethics and IP.

Pretty much. Muse Spark is one of the first major AI projects announced, since the Llama 4 flop with developers last year. Zuckerberg spent $14.3 billion to bring in Scale AI's Alexandr Wang and built a new team called Meta Superintelligence Labs.

Muse Spark is the first thing out of that lab; and in a huge shift, it's proprietary, not open source.

Meta says it's competitive with GPT-5.4 and Claude Sonnet 4.6 on several benchmarks, especially anything visual. It's rolling out across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and the Ray-Ban smart glasses.

There's a shopping mode, a health advice mode built with over 1,000 doctors, and a "Contemplating" mode coming soon that uses multiple AI agents reasoning in parallel. While it looks good at first glance, we’ll know much more as developers and verified developers get their hands on it.

This week, use your favorite AI model to scan and read at least 3 privacy policies of apps you use every day.

Here's what to do:

📱 Step 1: Pick your targets Choose 3 apps you use daily - think Instagram, Spotify, Uber, whatever lives on your home screen. Head to each app's privacy policy page (usually buried in Settings > Privacy or at the bottom of their website).

📋 Step 2: Feed it to your AI Copy the privacy policy URL or text and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini. Ask: "Break down this privacy policy in plain English. What data is being collected, who is it shared with, and what's the sketchiest thing in here?"

🔍 Step 3: Compare them side by side Once you've done all three, ask your AI: "Compare these three privacy policies. Which app collects the most data, and which one gives me the least control over it?"

🛡️ Step 4: Take back control Ask your AI to walk you through the opt-out settings for each app. Most of them bury toggles for ad tracking, location sharing, and data selling deep in the menus. Let AI find them so you don't have to.

🚀 Step 5: Share what you found Post your most surprising discovery - we guarantee at least one of those policies is going to make your jaw drop.

Will Elon prevail in the battle against OpenAI and Sam Altman? And, has Meta struck gold or fools gold this time?
