Musk sues Altman/OpenAI ... TL;DR and podcast 3Mar24

Last update: Monday 3/11/24 

Welcome to our 3Mar24 podcast + TL;DR summary of the past week's top AI stories on our "Useful AI News" page. Unfortunately the editor of this blog only had time to produce a TL;DR and podcast for only one top story ➡ Elon Musk Sues OpenAI and Sam Altman ... in two parts.

The first part considers Musk's goal in funding the establishment of OpenAI -- the development of AI via open source code available to everyone; the failure of this strategy; and the likelihood that Musk will lose his lawsuit. The second part briefly sketches a high-powered revision of this strategy that replaces Musk with DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) as the sponsor of a dual use initiative.
