Overview

  • Elon Musk said Apple’s refusal to place X and Grok in its editorial “Must Have” sections constitutes a clear antitrust violation and vowed immediate legal action.
  • No formal court filing has been reported and Apple has remained silent on the dispute.
  • Following OpenAI’s GPT-5 launch, xAI opened Grok 4 to free access for all users to bolster its App Store ranking.
  • OpenAI CEO Sam Altman publicly disputed Musk’s allegations on X and challenged him to swear he has never manipulated the platform’s algorithm.
  • Grok’s own responses endorsed concerns about Musk’s practices and a Kaggle tournament saw ChatGPT defeat Grok 4 in every chess match, intensifying scrutiny of their performance.
