Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI and Google are facing an antitrust lawsuit alleging the companies agreed among themselves to slow the pace of AI development. According to the plaintiffs, the plan was in motion for months before the companies publicly framed the agreement as safety-driven, calling it self-serving. The suit raises questions about whether coordination among leading AI firms violates competition law, and comes as regulators and the public increasingly scrutinize how much power a handful of companies hold over frontier AI.

Elon Musk claims SpaceX could achieve AI matching GPT-6 within three months and take 'pole position' in artificial intelligence within six, under a SpaceXAI effort planning a massive expansion of GPU computing capacity. The comments signal Musk's intent to fold advanced AI development into SpaceX alongside its launch business, intensifying competition with OpenAI, Google and other leading AI labs.

Elon Musk's X Corp and xAI have withdrawn Apple as a defendant in their antitrust lawsuit over alleged collusion in the AI market. The move removes one legal pressure point for the iPhone maker, though questions remain about whether the broader claims against other defendants continue. Observers are debating what the withdrawal signals about the strength of the case and Apple's legal exposure going forward.
