Ex-OpenAI exec Sutskever says he spent a year gathering proof of alleged Altman dishonesty
Sutskever said his OpenAI stake is worth as much as $7 billion and testified he helped remove Sam Altman over repeated dishonesty.
- On Monday, OpenAI co-founder and former chief scientist Ilya Sutskever testified in Oakland, confirming his ownership stake in the company is worth about $7 billion, making him the second OpenAI billionaire revealed during the trial.
- Sutskever testified that he spent a year gathering evidence of CEO Sam Altman's "consistent pattern of lying" and "undermining and pitting executives against one another," which prompted his 2023 vote to remove Altman.
- Rejecting claims he promised Musk that OpenAI would remain nonprofit, Sutskever testified the mission is "larger than its nonprofit or for-profit structure," and recalled turning down a $6 million annual offer from Google.
- Sutskever now leads Safe Superintelligence Inc., an AI research lab valued at $32 billion, after signing a petition to reinstate Altman as a "Hail Mary" to save the company from being "destroyed."
- Closing arguments for the trial will occur on Thursday, District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said, as the legal battle centers on Musk's accusation that the company abandoned its nonprofit roots.
