He's been somewhat critical of OpenAI. Specifically the part about it pivoting to a for-profit business.

> I’m still confused as to how a non-profit to which I donated ~$100M somehow became a $30B market cap for-profit. If this is legal, why doesn’t everyone do it?

You’re sharing lies. He donated $10 mil and talks it up 10x.

There's a lot of lies in tweets. The point was: he's been disparaging OpenAI. It doesn't matter how much he donated or if he donated.

Isn't the more important point that his consistent lying makes his disparagings unreliable as a signal?

Can you point out any of his lies?

I assume you are joking. In case you aren't, start with the subject of this very thread ($100M claimed Vs $10M reality). Then work backwards through every claim he ever made about anything. Here's a collection of his top hits https://www.elonmusk.today/

Because it was thereby starting to compete with his own for-profit.

He was even asking for a moratorium for 6 months so his company could catch up.
