A new filing just dropped in the Musk v. Altman case, and it may be the most brazen and cynical document OpenAI has produced yet.

It's a motion to exclude the testimony of Stuart Russell, but their attacks blatantly contradict things @OpenAI itself has said for years.

🧵 Image For context, Stuart Russell is an AI professor and a Fellow of the Royal Society.

He won the 2025 AAAI Award for AI for the Benefit of Humanity, TIME named him one of the 100 most influential people in AI, and he has testified before the U.S. Senate. Image

A dozen right-wing influencers suddenly became passionate about semiconductor export policy, posting nearly identical (and often false) attacks over a 27-hour period on a bill most people have never heard of.

🧵 Image The AI OVERWATCH Act is a Republican bill that would let Congress review AI chip exports to adversaries like China. It's backed by Microsoft and right-leaning think tanks.

But starting January 15, influencers called it pro-China sabotage and a Democrat plot, all in unison. Image

For months, we've been calling upon the team at @cognition_labs to make an industry-standard risk evaluation plan. They've consistently refused.

Now, one day after their product launch, a live streamer revealed a massive security vulnerability in front of an audience of 6,000.🧵 What happened?
