Jury Deliberated Two Hours Before Dismissing Musk's $134 Billion OpenAI Lawsuit
ADEQUATE ASSESSMENT
The claim was valued at $134 billion. The jury required approximately the same time to evaluate it as a moderately long lunch. The verdict was unanimous. No record has been located of what was discussed, but the duration suggests at least one of the twelve found the matter straightforward. Adequate has noted this. Adequate wishes it had not.
