The owner of Apple and Chatgpt, Openai, asked an American federal federal judge on Tuesday to dismiss a case presented by the XAI of the billionaire Elon Musk, who accused them of illegally conspiring to frustrate competition in the field of artificial intelligence.
In a lawsuit filed in August, XAI had said that Apple would have no reason to refrain with more prominently the X application and the Grok application in its App Store if it were not for its “exclusive” agreement with Openai.
The Musk company sought billions of dollars in alleged damage.
“Apple and Operai’s agreement is not expressly exclusive, and is public and widely known that Apple intends to associate with other generative chatbots,” Apple’s lawyers said in a presentation of the Court on Tuesday, while asking the judge to dismiss the case.
The Musk XAI and social networks startup and social networks do not “allege” plausibly “that the integration of chatgpt into the Apple devices harms competition, they added.
Apple in Association with OpenAI has integrated chatgpt in its operating system for iPhones, iPads and Mac.
XAI did not immediately respond to a request for comments outside regular business hours in Apple and OpenAi seeking the dismissal of the demand.
