Earlier this month, Elon Musk, the owner of the AI startup xAI, posted on X that he’d be taking “legal action” against Apple for “playing politics” by not putting Grok, his company’s chatbot, in its “Must Have” section in the Apple Store.
“Apple is behaving in a manner that makes it impossible for any AI company besides OpenAI to reach #1 in the App Store, which is an unequivocal antitrust violation,” Musk wrote at the time. “xAI will take immediate legal action.”
On Monday, Musk’s companies sued both Apple and OpenAI in a U.S District Court in Texas, claiming the two tech giants engaged in an “anticompetitive scheme,” per CNBC.
