Elon MuskKathleen Sheffer For ForbesJust hours ago, Elon Musk suffered a nasty loss in court — one that put an end to his $150 billion lawsuit against OpenAI. A jury said he waited too long to sue the AI behemoth and its cofounder and CEO Sam Altman, and the judge accepted that verdict, tossing Musk’s claims that OpenAI’s leaders had improperly converted a charity he helped fund into a for-profit business. “I think this is a dangerous precedent to set,” Musk told Forbes chief content officer Randall Lane at the Forbes Innovation 250 celebration dinner in Palo Alto, his first…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Barry Sanders walked away from the NFL 1,457 yards short of the all-time rushing record. He had rushed for 1,491 yards the season before and likely had another four or five seasons left in him. He retired anyway.To anyone who confuses longevity with achievement, the decision looked irrational. Sanders had already collected every validation worth collecting and chasing the record would have cost him something he valued more: his health, his humility and the way he would be remembered.For executives thinking about when to step down, how to approach CEO succession planning…

OpenAI has prevailed in its fight against Elon Musk. A jury on Monday found that Musk did not file his lawsuit against the AI giant within the statute of limitations. The judge quickly agreed with the jury, making the ruling final. The win for OpenAI came after less than two hours of jury deliberation. Within 20 minutes, the judge, who could have taken up to a month to issue a final ruling in the case, agreed with the advisory jury and issued the final say. Musk had alleged that OpenAI “stole a charity” when it converted into a for-profit company.…

If your brand isn’t included in the AI’s synthesis, you’ll never see the lost opportunity because the pipeline never existed. Brand and AI visibility are the same investment. The same assets that build brand equity are the assets that get cited by AI engines. CEOs should ask CMOs: Where does our brand show up when our ideal buyer asks an AI engine about our category? What percentage of our content investment is structured for AI citation…

As peptides move further into the wellness mainstream, many consumers are trying to navigate a rapidly evolving landscape of therapies, protocols, and health claims.gettyI’ve often been an early adopter when it comes to new ideas, technology, and shifts in culture. But when it comes to what I put into my body, I tend to move more thoughtfully. I’m open-minded, curious, and interested in what’s emerging. But I also believe in taking the time to do the due diligence, ask questions, and understand what’s actually behind the hype.And as I’ve gotten older — especially as I navigate the realities of perimenopause…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Stay consistent with your marketing to avoid drops in leads and revenue. Make conversion a priority — you could be missing opportunities. Get super organized with your follow-up flow to increase sales long-term. Global layoffs have been piling up. We’ve seen Amazon slash 16,000 corporate roles, UPS downsize 30,000 operational jobs and Nestlé cut 16,000 positions. But for most business owners, cutting staff should not be the first move when cash flow gets tight. That’s because revenue problems can often be marketing problems in disguise. Oftentimes, there are ways you…

In 2006, Amazon Web Services was a fledgling—and a bit of an oddity. Amazon had taken the cloud-computing technologies it had created for its own operations and turned them into a business. Any organization could use them to build out an online presence without managing any infrastructure. Amazon watchers struggled to suss out what the e-tailer was up to: “I have yet to see how these investments are producing any profit,” carped one Wall Street analyst. At the very start—when it was still a big deal if AWS collected $100 in revenue in a single day—an AWS product manager named Matt…

That was quick. After less than two hours of deliberations, a jury handed Sam Altman a decisive victory over Elon Musk—and cleared the way for OpenAI’s massive IPO later this year. The nine-person jury found that Musk filed his lawsuit in 2024 but knew about the alleged misconduct back in 2021, meaning he blew past the three-year statute of limitations. Musk accused Sam Altman and OpenAI of violating the company’s founding mission as a charitable organization by converting it into a for-profit operation. He sought $150 billion in damages. The three-week trial turned ugly. Musk openly clashed with OpenAI’s lawyer…

Often called “ghost sharks,” Chimaeras are among the most mysterious inhabitants of the deep ocean. Distant relatives of sharks and rays, they diverged into a distinct evolutionary lineage nearly 400 million years ago – predating the dinosaurs.

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Radical transparency — openly sharing information across the organization and with customers — fosters deeper trust, faster decision-making and collective intelligence that confidentiality can’t match. When companies withhold information or deflect, it leads to confusion, rumors and mistrust. Being upfront, even about setbacks, earns more respect than staying quiet. Emphasize open communication throughout the organization, encourage feedback, make accountability a priority, and implement media and digital monitoring protocols to protect your brand’s reputation. In today’s environment, where so much conflicting and false information is disseminated, and online scams, data breaches…
