Elon Musk’s xAI sues Apple and OpenAI over AI competition, App Store rankings

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence startup xAI sued Apple and ChatGPT maker OpenAI in U.S. federal court in Texas on Monday, accusing them of illegally conspiring to thwart competition for artificial intelligence. Apple and OpenAI have “locked up markets to maintain their monopolies and prevent innovators like X and xAI from competing,” the lawsuit said.

Apple in partnership with OpenAI has integrated ChatGPT into its operating system for iPhones, iPads, and Macs.
