**Musk Slams OpenAI in Deposition, Citing Grok’s Safety**
Elon Musk has once again publicly lashed out at OpenAI, this time under oath in a deposition, asserting that his xAI chatbot, Grok, has not caused harm comparable to the potential dangers he perceives from OpenAI’s technology.
The Tesla and X CEO, who co-founded and later departed from OpenAI, reportedly stated, “Nobody committed suicide because of Grok,” drawing a stark comparison he frequently makes about the safety and ethical considerations in AI development. The comment underscores his ongoing lawsuit against OpenAI, where he alleges the company has strayed from its original non-profit, open-source mission.
Musk has consistently voiced concerns about the rapid advancement of AI without sufficient safeguards, positioning Grok and xAI as proponents of “maximum truth-seeking AI” that operates with greater transparency and safety. His latest remarks intensify the ongoing public and legal battle between the influential tech figure and the AI pioneer he helped bring into existence.
