Elon Musk and Sam Altman were once partners at OpenAI and have been locked in a public dispute over OpenAI's direction for a few years now. The public spat between the two billionaires -- Sam Altman and Elon Musk -- took another turn recently when the Elon Musk-led consortium made a $97.4 billion offer to buy the non-profit entity controlling Altman’s OpenAI. No surprises here that Elon Musk leads this almost $100 billion unsolicited bid for OpenAI’s nonprofit arm.

Last year, Elon Musk sued OpenAI for what he claimed became a “closed-source de facto subsidiary” of its investor Microsoft, following up in November with a preliminary injunction to stop the “market-paralyzing gorgon” OpenAI from becoming a for-profit entity.

Sam Altman retaliates calling Elon Musk 'insecure and unhappy' person

Altman rebuffed the bid. Mocking the offer on Twitter, he wrote: “no thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want”. In an interview to Bloomberg, he added that OpenAI is “not for sale” and that it is the latest of “tactics, many, many lawsuits, all sorts of other crazy stuff, now this” for the “competitor” Elon Musk to “slow us down.”

Seething Altman went on to add that he doesn’t believe Musk is a “happy person” and Musk’s “whole life is from a position of insecurity — I feel for the guy.”
