Musk’s X Corp. and SpaceXAI have dropped Apple from their antitrust lawsuit while continuing to pursue claims against OpenAI, prompting U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman to seek details of any agreement behind the resolution. The companies must provide any agreement or combination of agreements with Apple for private in-camera review by noon Thursday, Sept. 17, and Apple may respond by the same deadline. The order followed an emergency motion from OpenAI, which remains a defendant and said it did not participate in the resolution. The case began with August 2025 allegations that Apple and OpenAI acted as monopolists by favoring ChatGPT, while Apple and OpenAI have since broadened and complicated their separate artificial-intelligence strategies and legal disputes.
