OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has disputed Elon Musk's claims about the risks of partnering with Microsoft, stressing that he doesn't pay much attention to it.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has reacted to comments from Elon Musk, who warned that the OpenAI-Microsoft partnership could negatively affect the tech giant. Musk posted on X that OpenAI would "eat Microsoft alive," while Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella adopted a conciliatory tone. The rivalry between Altman and Musk dates back to 2015, when they co-founded OpenAI, but Musk later expressed dissatisfaction with the organization's transformation into a profitable company. Altman suggested Musk's proposed takeover of OpenAI was an attempt to slow down a competitor.
