Apple has hit back at Elon Musk over his claims its partnership with OpenAI to build ChatGPT directly into the iPhone is stunting AI industry competition. In court documents filed on Tuesday and seen by Bloomberg, Apple’s lawyers asked a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit filed by Musk’s companies xAI and X Corp, decrying claims they have been harmed as “speculation on top of speculation.â€
In August, Musk’s companies filed a lawsuit accusing Apple of rigging App Store rankings against chatbots and apps competing with OpenAI, including Grok and X. Apple’s lawyers said Musk’s AI and social media companies had done nothing to “plausibly†stand up their allegations, explaining that the agreement with OpenAI is “expressly not exclusive.â€
In any instance, Apple’s lawyers said it is also “widely known that Apple intends to partner with other generative AI chatbots,†adding that competition law does not require it to simultaneously partner “with every other generative AI chatbot†on the market, regardless of quality.
