AI War ⚔️: Musk vs. Apple – Shocking Ruling! 🤯

Tech & Science

A few weeks ago, US District Judge Mark Pittman rejected Apple and OpenAI’s motion to dismiss Elon Musk’s lawsuit, indicating a desire for further evidence before reaching a decision. The legal action stemmed from Musk’s claim that Apple’s partnership with OpenAI unfairly disadvantages other AI companies competing within the App Store. Following the initial lawsuit filing, Apple and OpenAI attempted to have the case dismissed, but Judge Pittman denied their request, demanding additional documentation. In response, Apple and OpenAI were granted additional time to file their response, a standard procedural step that was routinely approved by the court. They are now scheduled to submit their response by December 11th. Furthermore, in a recent development, the court approved a request made by xAI to obtain evidence from a South Korean entity through an international judicial assistance order, specifically granting the motion for a Letter of Request for International Judicial Assistance pursuant to the Hague Convention on the Taking of Evidence Abroad in Civil or Commercial Matters.

The Clerk of Court will affix the original seals; subsequently, the Court will directly transmit both the Letter of Request and its certified Korean translation to the National Court Administration of the Republic of Korea. The Court has until December 11 to complete this transmission.
