Mark Tobaroff had one word leaving that courtroom, Elon Musk's lawyer, and he just said, appeal.

Again, there were emails where Elon Musk was very aware that they were starting a for-profit arm of the company, that they needed to do that to raise money.

He even tried to start an AI lab within Tesla that he wanted to recruit Sam Altman to join.

And then he wanted Tesla, a for-profit company famously, to join.

buy OpenAI or like acquire it.

I was editing the pre-writes and Paresh Devay, one of our great reporters, had written three versions.

And the first version I edited was like, Elon Musk wins.

And I was just like, there's no way this person has ever seen the light of day.

You know, it's interesting.

I actually think it gives them a lot of momentum and now they're going to like go full speed ahead.

I do think the image of OpenAI and Sam Altman in particular has been a bit tarnished throughout this trial.

It came on the heels of like a series of reporting about his allegedly duplicitous behavior.

And I don't think he looks necessarily duplicitous.

better coming out of the trial.

But I think the company, you know, is really bullish on its IPO, which could come as soon as this year, like its full steam ahead on enterprise code, which is kind of the phrase of Silicon Valley right now.

butt pillow usage in the courtroom by and different brands of butt pillow too different brands of butt pillow yeah fancy ones cheaper ones everyone's using a fancy butt cushion on those rock hard seats yeah I mean I think

Elon Musk is a very litigious figure.

I think he is willing to roll the dice and try for a lawsuit on the off chance that it could be successful.

But I also think he knew that, and he said this in text messages that were revealed as part of the trial when, you know, there was settlement conversations before it started.
