The billionaire accuses Apple of making it ‘impossible’ for any AI company besides OpenAI to reach No 1 in App Store rankings
Musk did not provide evidence to support his claim. Apple, OpenAI and xAI did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT currently holds the top spot in the App Store’s “Top Free Apps” section for iPhones in the US, while xAI’s Grok ranks fifth and Google’s Gemini chatbot sits at 57th.
ChatGPT also leads the rankings on the Google Play Store, according to Sensor Tower data.
Apple has a partnership with OpenAI that integrates ChatGPT into iPhones, iPads and Macs.
