Musk firms sue Apple and OpenAI, alleging they hurt competition
Two companies owned by billionaire Elon Musk, Neuralink and The Boring Company, have filed a lawsuit against tech giants Apple Inc. and OpenAI. The lawsuit alleges that Apple and OpenAI engaged in anticompetitive behavior that has harmed the ability of Musk’s companies to innovate and compete in the market.
The legal action, filed in a California court on Thursday, claims that Apple and OpenAI have been working together to exclude competition from the market for advanced artificial intelligence technologies. Neuralink and The Boring Company argue that this collaboration has restricted their access to key technologies and talent, putting them at a significant disadvantage.
In response to the lawsuit, Apple released a statement denying the allegations and asserting its commitment to fair competition and innovation. OpenAI has not yet publicly commented on the legal action.
Elon Musk, known for his outspoken personality and frequent use of social media, has not personally commented on the lawsuit. However, it is well-documented that Musk has been critical of tech giants like Apple in the past, often accusing them of stifling competition and impeding progress in the tech industry.
The outcome of this lawsuit could have far-reaching implications for the future of artificial intelligence technology and competition in the tech industry. As the legal proceedings unfold, industry experts will be closely watching to see how the courts respond to the allegations put forth by Neuralink and The Boring Company.
