  A million reviews with 4.9 average for @Grok and still Apple refuses to mention Grok on any lists

  Here's what happens when asking ChatGPT if the integration with Apple iOS is monopolistic behavior... “The DOJ or FTC would very likely frame this as unlawful exclusive dealing/monopolization under U.S. antitrust law. The situation is closest to the Microsoft browser case and [im…

  NEWS: Bloomberg top reporter on apple and tech just said: “Elon Musk is right.  Apple does give pretty hot promotion to some of the other companies [chatgpt] in App store and they haven't done a lot of that promotion for Grok, so maybe we'll see more of that from Apple” grokbros …

  ...The lawsuit accuses the two companies of teaming up to maintain monopolies over smartphones and generative AI; an “anticompetitive scheme” that Musk's X and xAI claim is killing innovation and locking competitors like Grok out of the future.

  Elon Musk's suit against Apple accuses the company of deprioritizing AI chatbot competitors like xAI's Grok in its App Store rankings. Here's a screenshot from 6 months ago .. when Grok was number one in the Apple App Store: [image]

• @xlr8harder @xlr8harder on x

  Does anyone really find it plausible that Apple needs to suppress the xAI app for OpenAI to continue beating it on the app store? ChatGPT is the only AI that most consumers can name, and xAI has a porny brand problem and a much smaller install base. [image]

  I needed an XL cup of coffee before processing Elon's manifesto on how Grok, the greatest AI app on the planet, is being wronged... Oh, sorry, I meant the antitrust lawsuit X filed this morning against Apple and OpenAI, alleging a conspiracy to monopolize AI. Let's dig in 🧵

• @parkerortolani Parker Ortolani on x

  I just don't believe Apple is giving OpenAI any sort of special treatment.  No one wants to use ChatGPT through Siri.  The App Store is allowed to editorialize.  And Grok is consistently ranked in the top free apps regardless of the Apple and OpenAI partnership, which is still th…

  I have a feeling this ends with Apple speed-running allowing other AI apps in Apple Intelligence (iirc Craig said they would support others like Claude and Gemini last year) and xAI dropping it after Apple explains how the App Store charts work

• @brianroemmele Brian Roemmele on x

  This X vs Apple lawsuit had to happen. Apple's ineptitude in AI, they had massive advantages with Steve's last act, to buy Siri, has led them to stupidity teaming with Al sorts of folks Apple would never have even talked to—in their great past. @elonmusk is right to do this. [ima…

  Can Musk sue his way to the top of the App Store?  I asked Stanford Law Prof. @marklemley.bsky.social about Musk's new lawsuit against OpenAI and Apple www.platformer.news/musk-sues- ap...  [image]

• @bobbyallyn Bobby Allyn on bluesky

  Musk again filed a suit in the Northern District of Texas, where neither Apple nor X are based  —  X, based in Bastrop, would normally litigate federal suits in the Austin area's district court  —  But the Northern District of Texas has been friendly to Musk  —  Musk's venue just…

• @sandofsky.com Ben Sandofsky on bluesky

  So did they deliberately time the filing to distract from the news they're caving on the Twitter employee class action suit?  Or am I falling into a 4D chess trap?

• @reckless Nilay Patel on bluesky

  This is so funny - “you didn't rank me # 1” is such a whiny baby complaint www.theverge.com/news/765171/ ...

• @bobbyallyn Bobby Allyn on bluesky

  Just so striking that a lawsuit alleging violations of basic fairness is engaging in forum-shopping to land in a court that has historically favored Musk

  My theory is that Apple has warned Musk it's going to do this, and he's retaliating [embedded post]

• @bobbyallyn Bobby Allyn on bluesky

  The judge who has been assigned the new Apple case is Mark Pittman.  —  Records indicate he is not a Tesla investor, but he, like O'Connor, are active in the Federalist Society.  —  Pittman's most recent financial disclosure shows he's on the Fort Worth chapter's board of advisor…

• @wilkos @wilkos on bluesky

  How do you know even Elon knows he's losing badly in a market?  He starts filing bullshit lawsuits.  [embedded post]

• @caseynewton Casey Newton on bluesky

  This is pathetic (Grok was No. 1 in the App Store just a few months ago) but it *is* a good opportunity for Apple to change Grok's 12+ rating to something more appropriate given that xAI is now a sexbot company [embedded post]
