Jury rejects Elon Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI over statute of limitations.

A federal jury in Oakland unanimously ruled that Elon Musk waited too long to sue OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman, dismissing his claims on statute of limitations grounds after roughly 90 minutes of deliberation. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers accepted the advisory verdict as her own, stating there was substantial evidence to support the finding. Musk vowed to appeal, arguing the jury ruled only on a technicality rather than the merits of his claim that Altman betrayed the company's nonprofit mission.
