Judge Rules That Elon Musk's Ketamine Use Is Off Limits
"At a Friday hearing in California, US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said that Musk's use of ketamine will be off limits to OpenAI's legal team and its CEO Sam Altman as the case is set to go to trial next month, Bloomberg reports, which will likely save Musk from heaps of further embarrassment."
"In 2024, The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk used LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, and mushrooms, often at drug-fueled parties. Sources close to him said that his use of ketamine was still ongoing, raising the possibility that Musk could be jeopardizing his companies' federal contracts with his illegal habit."
"That May, a report from the New York Times claimed Musk was using recreational drugs far more than what was previously known. He reportedly brought a daily pillbox that held about 20 capsules with him wherever he went, stuffed with drugs like Adderall. He was taking ketamine almost every day, according to the reporting, sometimes combining it with other substances."
A California federal judge has ruled that Elon Musk's ketamine use cannot be discussed during his ongoing legal dispute with OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman. The ruling prevents OpenAI's legal team from introducing evidence about Musk's drug habits at trial next month. Musk has long been reported to use ketamine recreationally, initially under prescription for depression treatment. Multiple media outlets have documented his use of various substances including LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, and mushrooms at parties. Recent reporting indicated his ketamine use intensified significantly, with daily consumption sometimes combined with other drugs. The judge's decision shields Musk from potential embarrassment and reputational damage during the trial proceedings.
