OpenAI President Greg Brockman testified on May 5, 2026 in the ''Musk v. Altman'' trial in California federal court, accusing Elon Musk of demanding "unilateral absolute control" over OpenAI to fund his plans for a city on Mars. Brockman, whose stake in OpenAI was revealed to be worth nearly $30 billion, defended OpenAI's 2019 for-profit conversion and testified that Musk himself had proposed that his stake would "change quickly" with additional investors. The trial, now in its second week, continues with closing arguments expected soon.<ref name="cnbc">[https://www.cnbc.com/2026/05/05/open-ai-altman-musk-trial-brockman-testimony.html CNBC: OpenAI trial — Brockman rebuts Musk's testimony]</ref> | OpenAI President Greg Brockman testified on May 5, 2026 in the ''Musk v.
