Musk said on Monday that he'd sue Apple over what he said was its bias toward OpenAI on the App Store.

These attacks allegedly culminated in Musk's seemingly fake OpenAI takeover attempt in 2025, which OpenAI claimed a Musk ally, Ron Baron, admitted on CNBC was "pitched to him" as not an attempt to actually buy OpenAI’s assets, "but instead to obtain 'discovery' and get 'behind the wall' at OpenAI."
