Elon Musk's lead counsel apologized to the jury for Musk's absence during closing arguments in his lawsuit against OpenAI co-founders Sam Altman and Greg Brockman. Musk was in China accompanying President Donald Trump, despite being on "recall status" to return to court if needed. The lawsuit alleges that Altman and Brockman violated a promise to keep OpenAI nonprofit and unjustly enriched themselves by restructuring the company. It remains unclear if Musk obtained court permission for his travel. The trial continues to draw attention as it involves major tech figures and the future of AI governance.
