X Corp and SpaceXAI Dismiss Antitrust Lawsuit Against Apple
On September 14, 2026, X Corp (formerly Twitter) and Elon Musk's SpaceXAI announced the dismissal of their antitrust lawsuit against Apple. The case had accused Apple of colluding with OpenAI to monopolize markets for smartphones and generative AI chatbots by integrating ChatGPT into its Apple Intelligence suite across devices. No settlement details or reasons were provided in court filings, though a judge previously allowed the case to proceed after ruling it could move forward in November 2025. Apple argued that its partnership with OpenAI did not prevent competition and denied any wrongdoing. Meanwhile, X Corp stated that their legal battle against OpenAI continues as part of an ongoing dispute over alleged monopolistic behavior. A separate lawsuit by Musk against OpenAI was dismissed earlier this year in May 2026 for similar claims about the company's mission deviation. The dismissal leaves unresolved questions around market competition and AI integration, but it signals a strategic shift or potential resolution between Apple and Musk’s companies.
