Elon Musk's X and SpaceXAI have dropped their antitrust lawsuit against Apple, according to a filing dated September 14, 2026. The companies did not disclose a reason for the withdrawal or state whether a settlement was reached. The lawsuit, filed in August 2025, alleged Apple manipulated App Store rankings to prevent Musk's Grok chatbot from surpassing OpenAI's ChatGPT and violated antitrust law by integrating ChatGPT into Apple Intelligence. Apple had previously sought dismissal in October 2025, but the case continued. The separate lawsuit against OpenAI remains active and will proceed. Musk had sought billions in damages, claiming Apple hindered AI innovation.
