In Short:
– Elon Musk threatened legal action against Apple for alleged App Store antitrust violations against his Grok AI app.
– Musk questioned Grok’s absence from Apple’s “Must Have” apps despite its high ranking as a free app.
Elon Musk threatened legal action against Apple over alleged antitrust violations related to the Grok AI chatbot app, owned by his startup xAI.
Musk accused Apple of making it impossible for AI companies other than OpenAI to achieve top rankings on the App Store, which he described as an antitrust violation. He stated that xAI would take immediate legal action.Banner

Musk also questioned why neither x nor Grok were included in Apple’s “Must Have” apps, despite Grok being the fifth top free app. He had previously warned that integrating OpenAI into Apple’s products would lead to a ban on Apple devices within his companies.

OpenAI’s Response

In response to Musk’s threats, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman commented on social media that Musk’s claims were hypocritical given his own actions with X.

Apple is no stranger to antitrust challenges, having faced legal issues regarding its App Store practices before.

Nvidia’s £68.1 billion revenue, up 73%, raises investor concerns about AI’s impact and tech customers’ financial health.

Nvidia posted strong quarterly earnings, but Wall Street remained unimpressed, causing shares to fall 5%. Analysts point to investor concerns over AI dominance and a stalled $100 billion deal with OpenAI.

Experts discuss what factors in the earnings report failed to meet market expectations, including revenue projections and details around the Vera Rubin chip architecture. Competition from alternative chipmakers and scrutiny of hyperscaler cash flows are also shaping investor sentiment.

Despite recent setbacks, analysts remain cautiously bullish on Nvidia, highlighting long-term AI potential and the company’s dominant position in the chip market.
