#MuskOpenAITrialLeaks: "You Can't Just Steal a Charity." Three Days on the Stand. Zero Punches Pulled. The most watched tech trial in history just finished its first week — and Elon Musk made sure nobody forgot he was there. Over three days on the stand, Musk repeated one line more than any other: "You can't just steal a charity." His central claim hasn't changed since 2024 — the $38 million he donated to OpenAI's nonprofit was redirected toward commercial purposes without his consent, and Altman and Brockman should be removed from the company entirely. The cross-examination got heated fast. OpenAI's attorney pressed Musk on his $1 billion funding pledge — he contributed only $38 million. Musk's response: "I contributed my reputation. These things have value." He added that his total contribution including intangibles exceeded $100 million. The judge let it go. The most revealing moment wasn't the sparring — it was the text that surfaced over the weekend. Two days before trial began, Musk texted Brockman about a potential settlement. When Brockman suggested both sides drop their claims, Musk replied: "By the end of this week, you and Sam will be the most hated men in America." That's not a settlement offer. That's a threat filed into evidence. Brockman took the stand Monday. Altman testifies later this month. OpenAI is valued at $850 billion. Musk's own SpaceX IPO roadshow starts in June. Both men are heading into the biggest financial moments of their lives — while a nine-person jury in Oakland decides whether one of them stole a charity. #MuskOpenAITrialLeaks
