Elon Musk threatens legal action against Apple over allegations related to ChatGPT-maker OpenAI in the App Store. Musk calls OpenAI boss Sam Altman a "liar" amid ongoing feud between the two billionaires who founded OpenAI. While Apple announced a partnership with ChatGPT in June 2024, other AI apps like DeepSeek and Perplexity have also performed well in the App Store. Musk questions Apple's promotion strategies for X and Grok apps, leading to further back-and-forth between the parties.
