A group of investors led by Elon Musk has offered 97.4 billion dollars to acquire OpenAias reported The Wall Street Journal. The offer (not requested) has already been rejected, but promises to open a new chapter in the history of Elon Musk and OpenAi and be an added problem for the most media and advanced company of the planet in developing, research and deployment of applications and models of artificial intelligence
Openai is in a convulsive moment. The American firm specializing in AI research became the fashion company after the launch of the chatbot chatgpt and the generative AI model, Dall E. But the entry into the Depseek scene has questioned its leadership in AI and if necessary spend 500,000 million dollars on huge projects such as The Stargate Project who leads OpenAi.
Elon Musk Y Openai
Elon Musk has Openai in the spotlight, since, remember, It was one of his co -founders And since time immemorial he conflict with Sam Altman, another of the founders and current executive director. But now he is in a privilege position as president in the shadow of the United States.
Elon Musk and Sam Altman in 2015. They were other times …
Point out that OpenAI’s board of directors is evaluating deep changes in its corporate structure To transform into 2025 a public benefit corporation (PBC), a type of company of US legislation that exists explicitly to generate profits and at the same time benefit society in some way. A great change regarding its origin as a non -profit organization, but essential to receive the multimillion -dollar investments that you are receiving, for example from Microsoft.
Musk’s offer includes among the investors to his own artificial intelligence, XAI company, and important funds such as Equity Partners, Baron Capital, Date Management, Vy Capital, 8VC. «It’s time for OpenAI to be the open source force again and security centered in the past. We will make sure that happens »Musk said in a statement.
Few believe that this is the reality behind this hostile offer and have more to do with the idea of Ear more money and get control of the reference company in the most emerging technology. And all this under a clear conflict of interest in the position that Musk occupies in the White House and that in any other western country would prevent a type of operation that seems more nationalization from the US administration.
In a publication without context written in X, Altman makes it clear that the offer has been rejected and incidentally, has taken the opportunity to launch an indirect not so subtle to Musk: “No, thanks, but we will Buy Twitter for 9,740 million dollars if you want”. Musk’s response to Altman’s message came with only one word: “swindler”.
Elon Musk and Openai’s war will continue. If Deepseek’s entry was already a big problem for the AI company, imagine in front of the richest type on the planet and president in the shadow of the most powerful country in the world.
