The court filing demonstrates that despite recognizing the harms posed by their AI systems, Microsoft and OpenAI continued developing the products driven by financial motivations. The filing notes that although OpenAI was founded with a goal of "benefit[ing] humanity as a whole," by 2017 CEO Sam Altman was planning to form a for-profit entity to carry forward AI research. Microsoft recognized that "millions of people around the world will soon consider large models 'hoovering up' all their work to be an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions."
