NoteThe source confirms the core litigation facts: Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI, the nonprofit mission betrayal allegation, Musk's ~$38M early investment, and that a jury trial is scheduled. However, there is a temporal discrepancy: the source (dated January 8, 2026) states the jury trial is 'tentatively scheduled' for 'March', while the claim specifies 'April-May 2026'. The source headline explicitly says 'March', not April-May. The source does not mention the potential damages range ($78B-$135B) cited in the claim's additional context, making that aspect unverifiable from this source. The trial date mismatch (March vs. April-May) is a direct contradiction for the same time period (as of January 2026).
