Tracking Trump’s executive orders, OpenAI rejects Musk’s $97.4 billion offer, and more: The week in 5 charts

The Hindu  

President Trump’s Executive Orders U.S. President Donald Trump assumed office on January 20, 2025 and as of February 11, he has signed 63 executive orders, which is more than those signed by any recent President in their first one hundred days in office, even surpassing the number of executive orders he signed during his first term. OpenAI board rejects Elon Musk’s $97.4 billion proposal Last week, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman dismissed rival Elon Musk’s $97.4 billion bid, stating, “We are not for sale”, at an artificial intelligence summit in Paris. “OpenAI is not for sale, and the board has unanimously rejected Mr. Musk’s latest attempt to disrupt his competition,” said a statement Friday from Bret Taylor, chair of OpenAI’s board. U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said it was a “stretch” for Musk to claim he will be irreparably harmed if she doesn’t intervene to stop OpenAI from moving forward with its transition from a nonprofit research laboratory to a for-profit corporation.
