๐บ๐ธ Tech billionaire Elon Musk is seeking to have OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and President Greg Brockman dismissed from their roles at the artificial intelligence company as part of a lawsuit set to go to trial later this month.
Musk sued Altman and OpenAI in 2024, alleging that the artificial intelligence venture he helped found nearly a decade ago had manipulated and misled him into donating $38 million on the understanding that it would remain a nonprofit organization. While it did not.
His side argued that removing a charityโs officers and directors is a common remedy when those individuals fail to protect or carry out the charityโs public mission.
The filing also said Musk is asking the court to require OpenAI to return to operating as a genuine nonprofit. OpenAI completed a restructuring in October and is now run as a nonprofit holding a 26% stake in its for-profit arm, which includes ChatGPT.
Musk, Altman and others co-founded OpenAI in 2015 as a nonprofit AI lab.

A subscriber paid us to do the following.
1. Two opposite charity causes are chosen:
a. Safe houses for women and children in Ukraine. Both if women escape from domestic violence, or if they find themselves at the brink of homelessness (for example, husband is MIA, no source of income).
b. Funding private tutors and university admission specialists' help for Palestinian teens who want to be approved for grants and sponsorships to study in universities abroad (normally STEM or medicine).
2. The same sub donated $150 with the intention for this money to go to the Palestinian cause.
3. If people, who want the money to go to the Ukrainian cause, donate more combined (let's say $151), all the money (donated by everyone) (in this example - $301) will go to that cause. Information about which cause leads and by how much will always be available live.
4. All the money all people donated will go to one cause in the end. The one whose supporters donated more in total. Once the money is transferred and spent, receipts and proofs are provided.
5. For donations use this link, https://t.me/tribute/app?startapp=dGOb (this is official Telegram's donations app with 2 million users; card payments accepted). In payment's info write U (for Ukrainian cause) or P (for Palestinian cause) and 5 random digits of your choice (save these digits). These 5 digits will be your donation's identifier, if you ever want to track its future destiny.
6. The fundraiser is scheduled to last up until and including April 15. After it is over, we will publish complete list of donations (you will be able to verify yours was counted right).
7. After the fundraiser is over, admins of the channel will add extra 25% of the amount raised from their own money. There will a separate poll what charity that additional money from admins should be spent on. If you wonder, this extreme generosity from us comes after I talked to the accountant and made sure I can deduct this charity spending from my taxes later.

๐ฎ๐น Italy has formally allowed workers to take sick leave to care for an ill pet, recognizing animal care as a legitimate basis for absence from work.
Under the policy, employees may receive up to three days of paid leave per year, provided they submit a veterinarianโs certificate and the animal is properly registered.
The measure builds on a 2017 ruling by a court in Rome, which sided with a woman who had taken time off to care for her sick dog. The court found that denying assistance to an animal could constitute a violation of the law.
The new policy effectively codifies that precedent, with the state acknowledging that pet ownership entails responsibility - and that caring for an animal can justify medical leave.
