Tesla founder Elon Musk on Monday revived his lawsuit against OpenAI and its chief executive Sam Altman, arguing that the artificial intelligence company put profits ahead of the public good.
In the lawsuit, first reported by The New York Times, OpenAI co-founder Mr Musk alleges that once the company's technology started to transform generative AI, Mr Altman “flipped the narrative and proceeded to cash in”.
OpenAI has a licensing partnership with Microsoft, with the tech company investing billions of dollars into the AI start-up in exchange for use of its large language models for its computing services.
Mr Musk contends that OpenAI's language models are outside the scope of the company's partnership with Microsoft.
The lawsuit seeks a judicial decision rendering the company's licence to Microsoft null and void.
“We're sad that it's come to this with someone whom we’ve deeply admired – someone who inspired us to aim higher, then told us we would fail, started a competitor, and then sued us when we started making meaningful progress towards OpenAI’s mission without him,” OpenAI said in a blog post.
In June, Mr Musk withdrew a lawsuit against OpenAI and Mr Altman that had accused them of abandoning the start-up's original mission to develop AI for the benefit of humanity rather than for profit.
The new lawsuit is similar to the earlier one, which the Tesla founder withdrew from California state court with no clear reasoning provided,
“We are focused on advancing our mission and have a long way to go. As we continue to make our tools better and better, we are excited to deploy these systems so they empower every individual,” OpenAI said in its blog post in March.

Key findings of Jenkins report
- Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
- Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
- Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
- Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."

$1,000 award for 1,000 days on madrasa portal
Daily cash awards of $1,000 dollars will sweeten the Madrasa e-learning project by tempting more pupils to an education portal to deepen their understanding of math and sciences.
School children are required to watch an educational video each day and answer a question related to it. They then enter into a raffle draw for the $1,000 prize.
“We are targeting everyone who wants to learn. This will be $1,000 for 1,000 days so there will be a winner every day for 1,000 days,” said Sara Al Nuaimi, project manager of the Madrasa e-learning platform that was launched on Tuesday by the Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, to reach Arab pupils from kindergarten to grade 12 with educational videos.
“The objective of the Madrasa is to become the number one reference for all Arab students in the world. The 5,000 videos we have online is just the beginning, we have big ambitions. Today in the Arab world there are 50 million students. We want to reach everyone who is willing to learn.”
