OpenAI President Greg Brockman Testifies His Stake Is Worth Nearly $30 Billion in Musk Trial

Greg Brockman testified in court that his stake in OpenAI is worth nearly $30 billion.
Brockman’s testimony came during Elon Musk’s lawsuit against OpenAI and its leaders over the company’s shift from its original nonprofit structure to a for-profit model.
Musk’s legal team used Brockman’s financial stake and other evidence in an effort to argue that financial incentives influenced OpenAI’s leadership.
Brockman testified that he did not personally invest money in OpenAI.
Evidence presented in court included a 2017 journal entry in which Brockman wrote, “Financially, what will take me to $1B?”
Before the trial, Musk sent Brockman a text asking about settlement, and after Brockman suggested both sides drop their claims, Musk replied that Brockman and Sam Altman would become “the most hated men in America.”
Musk is seeking an outcome that would return OpenAI to nonprofit status, and multiple reports say such a result could threaten the company’s future plans, including a possible IPO.
