Elon Musk’s xAI has filed a lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI, claiming that their partnership unfairly hinders competition in the AI market. The lawsuit alleges that OpenAI benefits from user prompts from iPhones, giving it a significant advantage in improving its chatbot technology, while Apple is allegedly deprioritizing competing AI apps in its App Store.
Elon Musk announced that his AI startup xAI will take legal action against Apple, alleging antitrust violations related to App Store rankings. Musk claims Apple's practices favor OpenAI's ChatGPT, making it difficult for other AI apps, like xAI's Grok, to compete for the top spot. OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman responded to Musk's claims, emphasizing the need for transparency in competition.
