Jury selection began today in Oakland in Musk v. Altman — the trial that could determine the future of OpenAI, one of the most powerful companies ever built. But the most important story isn't the legal arguments. It's the private record: the emails, texts, and diary entries that the founders of the AI industry wrote when they thought no one was reading.
In this video I walk through every significant document that has come out of discovery — Greg Brockman's private diary (with the line "then it was a lie"), Elon Musk's email calling Jeff Bezos "a bit of a tool," Sam Altman texting Musk "you're my hero" while preparing to fight him in court, Shivon Zilis asking Musk whether she should "keep info flowing" from inside OpenAI's board, and Mark Zuckerberg privately offering to suppress criticism of DOGE and proposing a joint bid on OpenAI's assets.
Every quote is sourced to the public court record. Links to primary documents are in the written piece at TheRipCurrent.com.
