Elon Musk's move is really ruthless, directly offering 13.4 billion, OpenAI is probably trembling in fear --- Wait, if this IP dispute really breaks out, the AI track might have to reshuffle --- Not gonna lie, I enjoy the spectacle without minding the trouble, just waiting to see the real showdown in court --- More and more compliance issues are being exposed, it feels like the entire AI circle is not quite right --- 13.4B? Is this guy trying to bankrupt OpenAI directly? Crazy --- So, who's really right or wrong here? The more I look, the more confused I get... --- Once this lawsuit is over, future startups will have to watch their backs --- It's another battle of interests; the Web3 governance model is actually more transparent --- Really? These numbers are just too exaggerated --- It seems Musk just loves to stir things up like this, a master of grabbing attention

13.4 billion? This number just seems like it's artificially creating a hot topic, but on-chain data definitely doesn't lie.

Elon Musk's move is ruthless, suing OpenAI and Microsoft for $13.4 billion. I think he's serious this time. $134B? No, that's an exaggerated number haha. OpenAI shifted from non-profit to for-profit, and Musk has been unhappy about it for a long time... Now he's finally taking a stand. To put it simply, the personal relationships and利益纠葛 in the AI field are too complicated; sooner or later, they'll have to be sorted out. The most outrageous part of this is the mix-up between IPR and governance issues; who wins or loses is really hard to say. Web3 folks should be happy—look at the internal conflicts among centralized AI giants. The era of decentralization has arrived, right?

13.4 billion? This guy really dares to ask for that much. OpenAI and Microsoft must be getting heavily exploited.
