Elon Musk has been vocal about his disapproval of Apple’s partnership with OpenAI, even going so far as to suggest that Tesla or his social media company X could create their own smartphone to rival Apple’s devices. But beneath the surface of Musk’s criticism lies a deeper concern – the potential threat that OpenAI poses to his own AI company, xAI. With Apple’s massive user base and influence in the tech industry, OpenAI’s integration into Apple’s operating systems could give it a significant advantage over xAI. Musk’s comments may be seen as a desperate attempt to discredit OpenAI and maintain xAI’s position in the competitive AI market. However, with xAI’s recent $6 billion funding round and Musk’s vast business empire, it’s clear that he’s not going down without a fight.
Musk Takes Aim at Apple’s OpenAI Deal
“Tesla is one of the few companies that has its own tech stack (not iOS, Android or forked Android),” Musk said in response to a Morgan Stanley analyst predicting that Tesla could make its own phone one day.
