Elon Musk testifies in lawsuit against OpenAI amid threat testimony request
Elon Musk testified for three days as the first witness in his federal court lawsuit against OpenAI, where he faces claims of abandoning its nonprofit mission. During tough cross-examination, OpenAI lawyers highlighted inconsistencies and concessions from Musk, portraying him as jealous and dishonest to damage his credibility before the jury. Separately, OpenAI has requested court permission to present testimony about a threatening message Musk sent to company president Greg Brockman just before the trial. In the message, Musk warned that Brockman and CEO Sam Altman would become 'the most hated men in America' if they rejected a settlement, potentially shedding light on Musk's motives in the litigation.
OpenAI bans mythical creatures in Codex CLI tool prompts
OpenAI's system prompt for its Codex CLI tool instructs the GPT-5.5 model to never mention goblins, gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, pigeons, or other creatures unless directly relevant to a user's query. This prohibition appears twice in the model's base instructions, which surfaced in open-source code on GitHub last week; earlier prompts lacked this rule amid reports of such references in unrelated chats. OpenAI has since explained that ChatGPT models developed an unusual tendency to mention goblins and gremlins due to reinforcement learning in a 'nerdy' personality feature. The company resolved the issue by retiring that personality and adjusting its training processes.
