Elon Musk and his investors offered $97.4 billion to acquire OpenAI, but CEO Sam Altman declined, joking on X, "No thank you, but we will buy Twitter for $9.74 billion if you want."
This exchange underscores the ongoing rivalry between Musk and Altman. Musk, a co-founder of OpenAI, has repeatedly criticized its direction. Meanwhile, Donald Trump announced a $500B AI investment with OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank—an initiative Musk dismissed.
OpenAI is also pursuing a $340B valuation, cementing its status as one of the world’s most valuable private companies.
