TREE NEWS update: Elon Musk’s xAI and X Corp. said they have settled their antitrust lawsuit against Apple, which had accused the iPhone maker of favoring OpenAI’s ChatGPT over rival chatbot developers. The suit against Apple was voluntarily dismissed, while the case against OpenAI continues; Musk’s companies allege OpenAI holds an illegal monopoly in the chatbot market. They had sought billions of dollars in damages.
Musk’s xAI, X Corp Settle Antitrust Suit Against Apple Over AI Competition
The settlement narrows the fight to OpenAI, leaving Apple out of the antitrust narrative while the core monopoly claim proceeds. That matters because it tests whether chatbot distribution deals — not just model quality — become the legal battleground for AI competition. Watch whether the OpenAI case now carries the full weight of the allegations, and whether similar distribution arrangements elsewhere draw scrutiny.
