Musk has accused Apple of giving unfair preference to ChatGPT on its App Store and threatened legal action, triggering a fiery exchange with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman this week.
“We feature thousands of apps through charts, algorithmic recommendations, and curated lists selected by experts using objective criteria.”
But earlier this week, Musk said Apple was “behaving in a manner that makes it impossible for any AI company besides OpenAI to reach #1 in the App Store, which is an unequivocal antitrust violation,“ without providing evidence to back his claim.
X users responded by pointing out that China’s DeepSeek AI hit the top spot in the App Store early this year, and Perplexity AI recently ranked number one in the App Store in India.
Altman called Musk’s accusation “remarkable” in a response on X, charging that Musk himself is said to “manipulate X to benefit himself and his own companies and harm his competitors and people he doesn’t like.”
OpenAI and xAI recently released new versions of ChatGPT and Grok.
Factors going into App Store rankings include user engagement, reviews and the number of downloads.
No official explanation was provided for the suspension, which followed multiple accusations of misinformation including the bot’s misidentification of war-related images -- such as a false claim that an AFP photo of a starving child in Gaza was taken in Yemen years earlier.
In a statement on Grok’s X account later that month, the company apologized “for the horrific behavior that many experienced.”
The litigation is another round in a bitter feud between the generative AI start-up and the world’s richest person.
