People change their minds all the time. What someone wanted in 2017 could be the same or different in 2024?

  Sure, but the nuance is Elon only wants what benefits him most at the time. There was no philosophical change, other than now he’s competing. He's allowed these opinions, we’re allowed to ignore them and lawyers are allowed to use this against him.

    > but the nuance is Elon only wants what benefits him most at the time. Isn't that almost everyone? The people who left OpenAi could have joined forces but everyone went ahead and created their own company "for AGI" It's like the wild west where everyone dreams of digging up gold.

      > Isn't that almost everyone? Sure. That's why we have contracts and laws to restricts how much one can change without paying or jail. Not every changes are equals.

    That is true of most people and is the most common reason people change their minds.
