Musk v. Altman jury selection, some jurors voice negative views of Elon Musk

techApr 28, 202637561

During voir dire in federal court in Oakland, several potential jurors openly said they disliked or did not trust Elon Musk while being questioned for the civil lawsuit Musk filed against Sam Altman and OpenAI. Musk’s complaint challenges OpenAI’s evolution under Sam Altman and seeks remedies tied to control and economic stakes after the organization adopted a capped-profit structure. Jurors’ statements about Musk’s character raised questions about whether the court can seat an impartial jury for a trial that will decide leadership and contractual disputes at a major AI company. How the judge handles those bias concerns may affect the trial timetable and shape legal precedents that influence governance and investor risk across the AI sector.

Elon Musk's IQ is 110 in the shade and not one educated person who reads his Twitter feed doubts it

lol. For real. The only thing these megalomaniacs are good at, is convincing people they’re good at things. And it’s usually because they were never good at much.

Musk's IQ is 110 at best, more likely 90-98. Nothing but a scam artist; couldn't even earn enough college credits to be half-way thru sophomore status. ...oh ... and also a sociopath.

it's that conscienceless confidence sociopaths have that people fall for (until they get royally burned by one and learn to recognize it)

Had my IQ tested professionally, it was 6 hours of questions/math/Physics/common sense & those Q’s that get asked over again in different ways. I scored 158. I’m not boasting, just stating the facts, I’m not better than anybody. I couldn’t be an Elon Musk b/c I’ve something he lacks- Empathy. 🙁

If it were not for his wealth he'd be the weirdo ranting at the back of the bus you would move two rows down to get away from

I thought 110 was how many kids he had.

I seriously think that's a tad high.

But it’s a tRump 110°, so it’s not so bad…

I’m an educated person who doesn’t read his Twitter feed, and I doubt he tops 85 in a k-hole.

Jury selection in the Elon Musk v. Sam Altman/OpenAI case is complicated by the fact that potential jurors have a negative view of AI and Elon Musk:

It would be incredibly easy to find jurors that hate both of them, just do that.

"is there any verdict we can return that's bad for everyone involved"

If you have enough money to buy yourself universal hatred you never need to face justice!

Oh boy, that'll be fun finding an impartial jury for the shooting case too.

Maybe the solution is to just declare a mistrial and yeet both of them into the sun?

First civil case where the jury wants to condemn both sides to the death penalty.

The aknowledged richest person in the world, Elon Musk, lied about USAid that resulted in its unlawful defunding and eventual disbanding, resulting in the death of millions of the world's poorest children. Let that always be his legacy.

Elon Musk used SpaceX to prop up Tesla cyber truck sales so in reality the total number of sales would be like 7000 or 8000 last year

Finding impartial jurors in Musk v. Altman must be a null set.

📢 Elon Musk is suing to make OpenAI a non-profit again and remove Sam Altman as its CEO. If he succeeds, the complex web of deal between the world’s AI companies could fall apart.

Jury selection today in #Musk v #Altman et al. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers discussing prospective jurors with the lawyers. "The reality is, people don't like [Musk]. The question is, whether [jurors] can get beyond their bias, or no."

Elon musk is really testing the limits of illegal theory that you can be so famous and so hated it's impossible to find it impartial jury.
