Sam Altman Rejects Elon Musk’s $97.4B OpenAI Buyout, Calls It ‘Ridiculous’

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has dismissed Elon Musk's $97.4 billion offer to buy the nonprofit controlling OpenAI, calling it 'ridiculous.' Altman even joked about buying Twitter for $9.74 billion instead. Musk, who co-founded OpenAI but later left, has been at odds with Altman over the company's shift to a for-profit model. His latest bid follows an ongoing legal battle where Musk accused OpenAI of prioritizing profit over public good.
