I mean, my phone has been blowing up with British friends cheering on their King for taking Trump to task, seemingly on top of after-topic, here's part of what he said.
With a spirit of 1776 in our minds, we can perhaps agree that we do not always agree.

NPR has learned frayer reporting, Elon Musk took the stand today in his lawsuit against open AI and its CEO, Sam Altman, Musk argues that the AI company has effectively abandoned its not-for-profit founding principles and wants Altman out NPR's John Ruich reports. The case hinges on whether Open AI's founding mission of creating AI as a non-profit for the benefit of humanity has been lost.
Musk helped found the company a decade ago, but he left in 2018 amid disagreements
with Altman and others about who would run a for-profit arm of the company that would
be set up to raise money.
“Musk testified about his role early on, he says he recruited a key AI researcher and used”
his contacts at Microsoft and Nvidia to get access to computing power, and he says he wasn't opposed to setting up a for-profit entity, but he wanted to control of it. In an opening statement, Open AI's lead lawyer said the other founders were not okay with one person having control. Musk left, launched a competitor, XAI, and then sued.
