  "summary": "Elon Musk is suing OpenAI, Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and Microsoft for \\$79-134B, alleging they fraudulently induced his \\$38M donation by promising to maintain nonprofit status, then converted to for-profit. Trial scheduled April 27, 2026. Four claims survived dismissal: breach of charitable trust, constructive fraud, fraud, and unjust enrichment. Key evidence includes Greg Brockman's internal note calling the conversion 'morally bankrupt.' The Foundation's \\$130B equity stake is at risk if courts find the nonprofit entity committed breach of charitable trust. Outcome probability: 40-50% settlement, 15-25% partial Musk win, 5-10% full Musk win, 25-35% OpenAI wins.",
