A federal judge expressed skepticism about Elon Musk's $134 billion damages claim in his lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, but let the case proceed to trial in April. U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers questioned the methodology of Musk's expert witness, saying the damages calculation appeared to be "pulling numbers out of the air," but declined to exclude the testimony. Musk is seeking $109 billion from OpenAI and $25 billion from Microsoft, alleging the company abandoned its nonprofit mission when restructuring as a for-profit. The case is scheduled for trial on April 28 in Oakland, California.
