Elon Musk's X Corp and SpaceXAI have filed to dismiss their claims against Apple with prejudice, ending their lawsuit over alleged AI market collusion and Siri integration issues. The motion, filed under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2), notes that Apple does not oppose the dismissal, while Musk’s companies continue to pursue claims against OpenAI Foundation, OpenAI LLC, and OpenAI OpCo LLC. The suit accused Apple and OpenAI of conspiring to maintain dominance, claiming Apple deprioritized competing chatbots like Grok in the App Store and limited iOS integration. Apple had previously sought dismissal, but the request was denied. The dismissal prevents refiling, but the dispute with OpenAI remains unresolved.

The lawsuit, initially filed in 2025, alleged that Apple’s partnership with OpenAI was a "desperate bid to protect its smartphone monopoly" and sought billions in damages for stifling AI innovation. Musk’s teams argued that Grok lacked the iOS integration enjoyed by ChatGPT via Siri, and that Apple unfairly ranked rival AI apps lower in the App Store. Apple countered that its future AI partnerships were transparent and that the claims were speculative. While the Apple case is now closed, Musk’s legal battle against OpenAI continues, focusing on similar antitrust and integration grievances.

Legal experts note that a dismissal with prejudice typically ends the matter unless an appeal is filed. The outcome may influence future AI competition lawsuits, especially regarding how tech giants integrate third‑party AI services and manage App Store rankings. Observers will watch whether OpenAI can successfully defend against Musk’s allegations of market collusion and anti‑competitive behavior.
