Elon Musk had a colorful first day of testimony in his lawsuit against OpenAI. Taking the stand Tuesday afternoon in an Oakland federal courthouse, the world’s richest man reportedly told the nine-person jury that AI “could kill us all,” and invoked both James Cameron’s Terminator (bad outcome of AI) and Star Trek (good outcome of AI).
He also pinned the entire story of OpenAI on a single insult he says Google co-founder Larry Page once hurled at him: “specieist.”
