Musk's X and xAI drop antitrust lawsuit against Apple
X Corp and xAI have filed to dismiss their antitrust lawsuit against Apple in a Texas federal court, with no explanation given for the move and no confirmation of a settlement. The suit had accused Apple of favoring OpenAI's ChatGPT within Apple Intelligence to the detriment of competitors like Grok. Musk's companies say their claims against OpenAI, also named in the original suit, will continue.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The dismissal removes one front in Musk's broader legal battle against OpenAI and Apple over AI market dominance, even as xAI faces separate scrutiny including a California governor's call for an investigation into Grok-generated content. It suggests Musk may be recalibrating his antitrust strategy to focus squarely on OpenAI rather than Apple's platform practices.
- X Corp and xAI moved to dismiss their antitrust suit against Apple in Texas federal court.
- The reason for dismissal and any possible settlement remain undisclosed.
- Musk's companies say they will keep pursuing separate claims against OpenAI.
