Elon Musk tried to enlist Mark Zuckerberg for his unsolicited bid to buy OpenAI this year for almost $100 billion, the startup said in a court filing. OpenAI said Musk identified Zuckerberg, the chief executive officer of Meta Platforms Inc., as one of the people with whom he had communicated about potentially financing a deal to purchase the ChatGPT maker. Neither Zuckerberg nor Meta signed the letter of intent or participated in the $97.4 billion bid, OpenAI said in the filing. OpenAI’s board formally rejected Musk’s bid in February.
