It's a very weird corporate structure. They started with a not-for-profit, only-for-the-good-of-mankind woo company. Then they started a for-profit subsidiary (with Microsoft investing in it) which is supposedly under the control of the non-profit. And now Altman has got rid of the non-profit board members who were sceptical about him.
Musk is precisely the wrong person to be asking the questions. But there are some questions that need to be answered.
Musk is generally an idiot, but he has good lawyers.
Not really. His several twitter suits agaisnt the journalists that show twitter is welcoming nazis with open arms are all hilariously weak. They fail on 4 or different levels at once and are all basic SLAPP suits that will fail immediately on actual review.
Well, they got him out of calling a hero rescuer a pedo. Of course they can't win impossible cases where the other part has good lawyers too.
But maybe he use different lawyers now?
He has expensive lawyers. He's sacked all the ones that disagree with him. And he has been launching some wildly optimistic actions, so I guess we will see.
