P.M. Edition for May 18. A California jury sides against Elon Musk in his lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman. The decision clears the path for OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, to go public. Plus, the Trump administration has created an unusual settlement fund for people who claim they have been victimized by the Justice Department. We hear from Journal reporter Ryan Barber on what we know about the fund and why it’s already getting pushback. And NextEra Energy has agreed to buy Dominion Energy in a $67 billion deal. Jennifer Hiller, who covers the power industry, says it would create the largest U.S. utility–but it’ll have to pass regulatory scrutiny first. Alex Ossola hosts.
