Musk v. Altman jury selection, some jurors voice negative views of Elon Musk
During voir dire in federal court in Oakland, several potential jurors openly said they disliked or did not trust Elon Musk while being questioned for the civil lawsuit Musk filed against Sam Altman and OpenAI. Musk’s complaint challenges OpenAI’s evolution under Sam Altman and seeks remedies tied to control and economic stakes after the organization adopted a capped-profit structure. Jurors’ statements about Musk’s character raised questions about whether the court can seat an impartial jury for a trial that will decide leadership and contractual disputes at a major AI company. How the judge handles those bias concerns may affect the trial timetable and shape legal precedents that influence governance and investor risk across the AI sector.
Vought needs to be in the first rank of the dock at The Tribunal, along with Elon Musk
C.V. Danes11Creation of such a tribunal needs to be a plank on the Democrats' platform or it will never happen.
Angry Flashing Light6Look, there’s some folks that we don’t need trials for because they’ve spent the last year confessing and prosecuting themselves on live tv. He’s one of those.
Elise Flynn4Someone's going to need to build a Golden Hague at this point to accommodate all the incoming.
Mike Freeman3Creepiest, most sinister Trump figure in a strong field.
Godspeed You! Woke Moralists2I wish Congress actually cared about being insulted like this.
Jared, Excited Comic Guy2Indeed. Vought has to be first, though. Musk shouldn't be given the dignity of being first on this agenda.
maraleia2He belongs in solitary confinement for the rest of his life
Statements from some of the juror questionnaires: “Elon Musk is a world-class jerk.” “I very much dislike Tesla. As a woman of color, I am very aware of the damaging statements and actions Elon Musk has enacted and been a part of.” “Elon Musk is a greedy, racist, homophobic piece of garbage.”
used to be a Nazi salute would be the end of you.
Economicus5Elon is the most government dependent person in the US @hoover
Aljo Painter5Great way to avoid jury duty.
jhessberg.bsky.social3It's a doge eat doge world my dude.
Thomas3Elon has turned the world’s largest social media platform into a cesspool of hate and misinformation presumably in his pursuit of power and government contracts. He also spends a great deal of effort promoting his efforts to fight “white replacement”. What’s not to like?
Dave Robbins2Although they will be disqualified from the jury pool, they are not wrong.
WCY2WHOS Driving one of these fascist mobiles around still!?! What are you doing? Drive a fucking Prius and save your soul before it’s too late
DaytonResists2Altman is a devil too. This is a conundrum
It's funny to see Elon Musk talk about universal basic income because you can't even imagine the caveats such a system would have under fascist logic. In the end there would be like three dozen white South African settlers who qualify for Musk's idea of a UBI.
Denny Carter335Musk was the American shadow president for like 90 days and starved the poorest people on earth ***for fun***. No way is that guy sincere about universal basic income.
Dan Angelucci13"y...y..you can't have UBI for people who believe in violence and want to see the country itself fail, so...... yeah." (Elon Musk on whether the fired writers of "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" qualify for UBI)
SE Gyges10he's not sincere but he should be held to it
fraac5Lefties are going to meme themselves into opposing UBI just because some Silicon Valley people have thought about it.
ferraille.bsky.social5nothing so crass as that the income simply comes in the form of a federal voucher for a subscription to "fart mode" on a Tesla of your choice. in order to prevent voucher fraud agents will be dispatched to your house to collect a gene sample
Lysander3How do you fund UBI if 90% of the population lose their jobs due to AI etc? Remember JD Vance and Peter Thiel's guru, Curtis Yarvin is publicly advocating 'Soylent Green' scenarios, and extracting fats from the deceased poor to create fuels This takes Naziism to a whole new, appalling level
Soyweiser2We dont have to theorize about this, just look up his claim about how he is a socialist, but one who doesnt take from the most productive to give to lesser productive people. xcancel.com/elonmusk/sta... (turns out he is more of a national socialist after all).
Scott Santens2I don't think Elon would ever sign The AI Pledge for Humanity. But he should. And so should everyone else working on AI. scottsantens.substack.com/p/i-just-lau...
jdewd2There is a universe of white people when you think about it
Tommy D2Means testing to make sure only the most racist people get it.
DennisIsOk🇺🇸2Yeah you get a stipend, but they're crypto tokens (not real dollars) and you can only spend them in you Google owned MegaBuilding.
Elon Musk's IQ is 110 in the shade and not one educated person who reads his Twitter feed doubts it
nickforbrains 🏳️🌈🧿37Whatever hardware he had has been well fried by the drugs
Jake33lol. For real. The only thing these megalomaniacs are good at, is convincing people they’re good at things. And it’s usually because they were never good at much.
That Christoph27Musk's IQ is 110 at best, more likely 90-98. Nothing but a scam artist; couldn't even earn enough college credits to be half-way thru sophomore status. ...oh ... and also a sociopath.
StephenB💙AussieBLUE🇦🇺🇨🇮🇺🇦24Had my IQ tested professionally, it was 6 hours of questions/math/Physics/common sense & those Q’s that get asked over again in different ways. I scored 158. I’m not boasting, just stating the facts, I’m not better than anybody. I couldn’t be an Elon Musk b/c I’ve something he lacks- Empathy. 🙁
jetblackbox18it's that conscienceless confidence sociopaths have that people fall for (until they get royally burned by one and learn to recognize it)
Shitposting for Charity15I thought 110 was how many kids he had.
Mike Leech14I don't care what his IQ is. He was instrumental in taking food and medicine from third world countries with US aid even leaving food on the docks to rot and that's all I need to know about that empathy deficient sociopath.
AZMountainGirl8I seriously think that's a tad high.
danjac.eurosky.social7If it were not for his wealth he'd be the weirdo ranting at the back of the bus you would move two rows down to get away from
El Intrepido rides again6But it’s a tRump 110°, so it’s not so bad…
kulbreez5I’m an educated person who doesn’t read his Twitter feed, and I doubt he tops 85 in a k-hole.
Michael Bowen5He's essentially a 15-year-old boy who think Heinlein and Ayn Rand are geniuses.
Nashville Resist 🗳️ Against Authoritarianism4Everything about him is disgusting.
drkolsen.bsky.social4He reminds me of Elizabeth Holmes. Rather than changing his voice, he stutters to make it seem like he’s deep in thought (he isn’t). I never heard him say anything remotely intelligent.
Euphemister!4I think you meant 110 in direct noon sunlight. In the shade it’s more like 90. 95 if it’s humid out (which it typically is when you cluster mouth-breathers).
Kikki Planet4I actually think you’re being kind, but I’m a petty bitch, so …
drjruberti.bsky.social3He lost me when he said batteries are the next oil.
Rich3I bet that 100 is a stretch. But his mediocre intelligence isn't his worst flaw. It's his complete lack of a compassionate soul.
bcruikshank217.bsky.social3Elon’s IQ of “110” is slightly more likely of being true than Trump’s “official” height and weight being: 6’3” 224 lbs. Unlike Trump, Elon isn’t an absolute knuckle dragging dipshit, but he has yet to regularly demonstrate the “genius” he purports to have
Suzanne McCain3Elon is definitely not a genius. It's offensive to geniuses that people call him that.
Woz2Ok he's 110 and he's a sociopath et all, and it feels good to have a rant about it, we get it. But the real question now is how to remove these people from power. And that's another story.
lhuggs.bsky.social2He's smart like a precocious 12 year old boy who learned everything you need to know about being a capitalist investing from a carnivorous businessman.
Jury selection in the Elon Musk v. Sam Altman/OpenAI case is complicated by the fact that potential jurors have a negative view of AI and Elon Musk:
Jane58It would be incredibly easy to find jurors that hate both of them, just do that.
POTUS Speedrun Record Holder18"is there any verdict we can return that's bad for everyone involved"
Jay Lender5If you have enough money to buy yourself universal hatred you never need to face justice!
Brian4Oh boy, that'll be fun finding an impartial jury for the shooting case too.
Kai [I am an extraordinarily brilliant person] Kronfield3Maybe the solution is to just declare a mistrial and yeet both of them into the sun?
Chuck Grassley's goat3First civil case where the jury wants to condemn both sides to the death penalty.
Elizabeth 🏳️⚧️💖2“Your honor, we find both parties guilty of crimes against humanity”
