The jury in California federal court, Oakland, in a unanimous verdict, held that Musk brought his case too late. The trial in the matter had begun on April 28, Reuters reported. In the lawsuit, Musk had accused Altman of violating a non-profit contract by shifting OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, to a for-profit company after the world’s richest person donated $38 million.

It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart. And not only that, it took the very widespread evolution of the 100 billion people that have ever lived and learned not to get eaten by predators and learned how to figure …
