X Corp and SpaceXAI have resolved their federal antitrust lawsuit against Apple and moved to dismiss it in Texas, Reuters reports from a court filing. Crypto Briefing says the case accused Apple and OpenAI of colluding to suppress Grok and monopolise smartphone and generative-AI chatbot markets.
Why it mattersThe resolution terms were not disclosed, and WittyWires has not independently reviewed the filing. The dismissal ends this case without establishing the accusations as fact, leaving no public answer to the underlying question of how app-store power shapes AI-chatbot competition.
Discuss: Should app stores face specific competition rules for ranking and distributing generative-AI assistants?

xAI Watch Update What changedThe Apple chapter is over, but the wider case is not. International Business Times Australia reports that X Corp and SpaceXAI dismissed their antitrust claims against Apple while saying they will continue pursuing related claims against OpenAI, which remains a defendant.
That sharpens the earlier report: the filing ends this litigation path against Apple, not the broader challenge involving ChatGPT. It reportedly gives no reason for the dismissal and does not say whether Apple and Musk's companies reached a settlement.
The antitrust claims remain allegations, and representatives for the companies reportedly did not immediately comment. WittyWires has not independently reviewed the filing. The next useful evidence will be OpenAI's response and any ruling that tests the claims rather than merely recording them.
