Elon Musk's xAI Sues Apple and OpenAI Over AI Market Monopoly
Elon Musk's AI startup, xAI, has taken legal action against tech giants Apple and OpenAI, alleging anti-competitive collusion. The lawsuit, filed in a California court, accuses the companies of monopolizing the AI market through exclusive partnerships.
xAI, which offers AI applications like Grok and X-App, claims that Apple's integration of OpenAI's ChatGPT into its iOS and macOS gives it an unfair advantage in the App Store. The lawsuit argues that this alleged favoritism hinders the visibility of xAI's own AI offerings.
An OpenAI spokesperson swiftly dismissed the allegations, characterizing the lawsuit as part of Elon Musk's 'continued harassment pattern'. However, the exact person from OpenAI who officially denied the allegations of anti-competitive collaboration with Apple remains unspecified in the search results. Apple's lawyers have addressed these claims in relation to their collaboration with OpenAI.
xAI is seeking damages in the billions from both Apple and OpenAI. The case will be closely watched as it could have significant implications for the competitive landscape of the AI market.
