On Monday, Elon Musk’s X and xAI sued Apple and OpenAI, claiming that the two businesses are conspiring to suppress competition.
According to the lawsuit, Apple has partnered with OpenAI to incorporate ChatGPT into its systems, stating that “in a desperate bid to protect its smartphone monopoly, Apple has joined forces with the company that most benefits from inhibiting competition and innovation in AI: OpenAI, a monopolist in the market for generative AI chatbots.”
In addition to their ongoing public taunts, Musk and Altman have a lengthy history of disagreements that include this lawsuit.Musk has filed a lawsuit to stop OpenAI from becoming a for-profit business, despite having previously been a co-founder and co-chair of the organization. Additionally, he made an unsolicited $97.4 billion deal to acquire OpenAI, which the firm turned down.
According to what I have heard, Elon manipulates X to help his businesses and himself while hurting his rivals and anyone he dislikes. This is an impressive claim.
Earlier this month, Musk accused Apple and OpenAI of anticompetitive behavior on X, saying that it is “difficult for any AI firm besides OpenAI to become #1 in the App Store.”
Last June, Apple and OpenAI announced their alliance, with joint features anticipated to launch in December.
A request for comment was not immediately answered by Apple or OpenAI.
