Musk companies sue Apple, OpenAI alleging anticompetitive scheme

  • XAI, Elon Musk's AI startup, filed a lawsuit on Monday in a Texas federal court accusing Apple and OpenAI of conspiring to block AI competition.
  • The lawsuit alleges Apple and OpenAI maintain monopolies through an exclusive deal that limits app visibility, hindering rivals like xAI from scaling.
  • Apple partnered with OpenAI in June 2024 to integrate ChatGPT exclusively on iPhones, iPads, and Macs, while xAI acquired the social app X in March for $33 billion.
  • Musk claimed that Apple’s behavior prevents any AI company other than OpenAI from attaining the top position on the App Store, while Apple maintained that its platform operates in a fair and impartial manner.
  • This lawsuit highlights ongoing tensions over App Store policies and could impact how AI apps compete on Apple devices and shape future antitrust scrutiny.
