Elon Musk’s AI venture, xAI, is taking legal action against OpenAI and Apple, claiming their partnership to embed ChatGPT into iPhones creates an unfair playing field in the artificial intelligence market. The lawsuit alleges Apple’s App Store favors ChatGPT, disadvantaging rival AI applications such as xAI’s Grok. xAI contends that the integration effectively forces iPhone users to adopt ChatGPT, solidifying OpenAI’s market dominance and building an unassailable advantage. OpenAI has dismissed the lawsuit as harassment, while Apple maintains that its App Store is committed to fairness and impartiality.
