From a non-profit promise to a commercial race
First-hand witnesses and concerns about the consequences
Legal experts emphasize that such blatant "scorched earth" tactics are not uncommon in Silicon Valley. The expected witness list for the trial, which is expected to last several weeks, reads like a Hollywood script. In addition to Musk, Altman and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, other senior executives will testify, including Siobhan Zilis, a former board member and mother of four of Musk's children. In addition, the board members who unexpectedly ousted Altman at the end of 2023 – Mira Moratti, Ilya Sutzkever, Helen Toner and Tasha McCauley – are expected to testify – an action taken because they, like Musk, have completely lost faith in the CEO's ability to develop superior technology solely for the benefit of humanity.
