Elon Musk’s AI Lawsuit Against Apple and OpenAI to Remain in Fort Worth
A U.S. district judge has ruled that Elon Musk's lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI will stay in Fort Worth, Texas, despite the case's minimal connections to the city. The lawsuit, filed by Musk's companies X and xAI, accuses Apple and OpenAI of anti-competitive practices in the AI market, alleging preferential treatment for ChatGPT over other AI apps like xAI's Grok.
Judge Mark Pittman's order included a sardonic suggestion for the companies to relocate their headquarters to Fort Worth, highlighting the city's appeal beyond its courthouse artwork. The case underscores growing tensions in the AI sector, with implications for tech giants and emerging players alike.
