Wouldn't you have to prove damages in a lawsuit like this? What damages does Musk personally suffer if OpenAI has in fact broken their contract?

>>BitWis+3T
You can sue for many reasons. For example, when a party breaks a contract, the other party can sue to compel the contract to be performed as agreed.

Well Elon was forced to buy Twitter that way

I think this is downvoted because (and I could be wrong) he could have paid a breakup fee instead of buying the business. So he wasn't compelled to actually own and operate the business.

No. He couldn't back out as he had already agreed to the 44B. The breakup fee was for if the deal fell through for other reasons, such as Twitter backing out or the government blocking it. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/12/technology/twitter-musk-l...
