Elon Musk-led group launches $97 billion bid for ChatGPT-maker OpenAI
SAN FRANCISCO — Elon Musk and a group of investors offered to buy ChatGPT-maker OpenAI for $97.4 billion on Monday, a sum far below the artificial intelligence company’s most recent valuation of $157 billion. . “No thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want,” he wrote, referring to the former name of Musk’s social media company that he bought for $44 billion in 2022. OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman immediately shot down the offer in a post on X . “No thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want,” he wrote,referring to the former name of Musk’s social media company that he bought for $44 billion in 2022.
The offer, which Musk’s lawyer Marc Toberoff said in an email was sent to OpenAI’s board on Monday, is a major escalation of Musk’s battle with the AI company that he helped to found and fund in 2015.
Musk parted ways with the project in 2018 after other leaders of OpenAI rejected his suggestion that he take over the company.
