The Morning After: Elon Musk wants the court to stop OpenAI becoming a for-profit

Elon Musk’s attorneys filed for an injunction against OpenAI and Microsoft on Friday, accusing them of anticompetitive practices. He wants to stop OpenAI’s conversion to a for-profit company. Musk first sued OpenAI earlier this year for allegedly violating its founding mission of building AI “for the benefit of humanity,” but he withdrew the lawsuit a few months later. He filed another lawsuit against OpenAI in a California federal court in August.

The third time’s the charm and all: Musk’s new motion accuses OpenAI and Microsoft of telling investors not to fund OpenAI’s competitors, such as Musk’s xAI, of “benefitting from wrongfully obtained competitively sensitive information or coordination” through its relationship with Microsoft.

Cyber Monday streaming deals include the Hulu and Disney+ bundle for $36 for one year

This is it: Cyber Monday is your last chance to get what’s possibly the best streaming deal of the season. The Disney+ and Hulu Duo Basic bundle is on sale for $3 per month for twelve months, which comes out to $36 for the full year. This bundle gives you the basic tier of Hulu and Disney+, both with ads, and only new users or subscribers who canceled their plans at least a month ago are eligible to redeem the discount. Note that there’s no ESPN Plus included — but if you’re not into sports, that’s a nice net savings here.

This bundle with ads contains content from Disney+ and Hulu. The content is still the same as with ad-free plans, including movies and series like Deadpool & Wolverine, Frozen, Godmothered and Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, the anticipated Star Wars series only on Disney+. If some of these newer shows aren’t to your liking, there are likely older classics worth your time in the library.

The deal runs from November 27 through December 2. After 12 months, the subscription will renew at the regular price if automatic renewal is …read more

I can’t get over how good a deal the Pixel 8A is for $399

For someone who wants to spend the absolute least on a phone and not have to think about buying another one for a good long while, I’ll always recommend Google’s A-series Pixel phone. That’s doubly true now with the Pixel 8A on a $100 discount for Black Friday-ish Cyber Shopping Holiday or whatever it is we’re currently experiencing. The 8A is a solid value at its full $499 price, and cut down to $399 it’s a ridiculously good deal.

Here’s the kicker: Google is promising to update the Pixel 8A with OS version upgrades and security releases through May 2031. That means you can expect it to run Android 21. If you bought the 8A now for $400 and owned it for six years, that works out to $66 per year. You’d have to use a $1000 flagship phone…
