Elon Musk vs Apple, OpenAI: X Corp Lawsuit Gets US Judge’s Approval To Proceed in Antitrust Case
A US judge has allowed Elon Musk-run X Corp’s antitrust lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI to proceed. The lawsuit accuses Apple gave ChatGPT exclusive integration on iPhones, giving OpenAI an advantage while limiting rivals like Grok. Judge Mark Pittman said that xAI can move ahead with their lawsuit.
Apple and ChatGPT maker OpenAI were reportedly unable to convince a federal judge to drop a lawsuit filed by Elon Musk’s X Corp. The lawsuit accuses the two companies are trying to dominate the markets for smartphones and generative AI chatbots. The complaint, which was filed in August, alleged that Apple broke antitrust law by giving ChatGPT exclusive access through Apple Intelligence on iPhones and other devices. Musk’s lawsuit claims Apple broke antitrust rules by giving ChatGPT exclusive access through Apple Intelligence on iPhones and other devices. It also argues that this partnership lets OpenAI reach millions of iPhone users while limiting competitors like Grok from getting similar integration. Apple has denied the antitrust claims, arguing in court that users can access other chatbots through apps and browsers. As per a report of Reuters, the case will continue after US District Judge Mark Pittman in Fort Worth, Texas, ruled that X and xAI can move ahead with their lawsuit. Pittman said "ruling should not be seen as a judgment on the merits of X's allegations, and that he will look at disputes over fact at a later stage in the case."
