Elun Mask Xai On Monday, Apple and OPA filed a lawsuit, accusing companies that they behave like monopolies, accusing the claims of umbrella competitors with Apple like Grok in the App Store.
The petition claims: “This is a story of two monopolies that join their forces to ensure that their dominance in the world was rapidly created by the most powerful technology of humanity ever: artificial intelligence.” “Work, Apple’s defendants and OPA have locked markets to maintain their monopoly and prevent inventive competitions such as X and XAI.”
Grok is currently in third place App Store for free productivity apps – only ChatGpt and Gmail. The “uncensored” ChatBot is also integrated into the social platform Musk X, which is a free newsletter program at the App Store.
The petition last year with Apple’s integration of umbrellas into iOS has a particular issue. The petition claims: “This means that if iPhone users want to use a Chat Chat of AI for key work on their devices, they have no choice but to use ChatGPT, even if they prefer to use innovative and imaginative products like the Grok XAI.” While Apple has not announced integration with other ChatBots, Openai’s participation in launch has not been introduced as unique. Nothing on Apple’s operating system prevents iPhone users from accessing your chat like Grok.
A spokesman for Openai, Kayla Wood, told Wired, “This is compatible with Mr Musk’s constant abuse pattern.” Apple did not respond immediately to the comment’s request.
The effect of this claim is that consumers have less choice. “These impacts on the market-less, less investment, less investment and less innovation-while damaging consumers through lower quality, lower selection and higher prices than in the world but for anti-competitive behavior,” the petition said.
Prior to leaving in 2018, Musk was a founder of the Openai team and eventually founded a rival company in the XAI format. An email to the XAI press line that sought a comment on the petition.
At a dinner in San Francisco earlier this month, a journalist asked Sam Altman’s CEO Openai how to think about the relationship of Opai and Apple. “Maybe they have decided to see, we don’t want to get the models,” said one journalist. There is enough competition. “
“Is there a place where you want to be their main partner?”
Altman did not answer this question directly. “Apple is my favorite technology company that is not Openai,” he said. Openai is currently working with Jonny Ive, a renowned Apple designer, on the product of artificial intelligence hardware. Altman said the product will be a “new computing model” at dinner, though he refused to share the details of the project.
This is not the first time the mask has complained to Openai. In 2024, the mask presented a complaint against the Chatgpe maker, claiming that the company had abandoned its fundamental mission to develop artificial intelligence to benefit humanity by pursuing a profit structure. While the company was originally designed as non -profit, later created a subsidiary for the collecting purposes. The company is being transferred that the subsidiary is very important to become a public interest company – a move that is very important for Openai to receive billions of dollars from Softbank.
