Sept 14 (Reuters) – Elon Musk’s X Corp and SpaceXAI said on Monday ​they have resolved their ‌lawsuit in federal court in Texas that had accused Apple  of conspiring to unlawfully monopolize markets for smartphones ‌and ​generative AI chatbots.

In a ⁠court filing, X ⁠and SpaceXAI moved to dismiss the lawsuit they brought against Apple last year. The filing did ​not explain the reasons for dismissal or say ⁠if a settlement ⁠had been reached.

The lawsuit ​claimed Apple violated antitrust law by ​exclusively integrating ChatGPT into Apple Intelligence ‌features on iPhones and other Apple devices. It alleged Apple had illegally shut out ⁠rivals in its partnership with OpenAI.

X and SpaceXAI said they will continue to pursue ⁠claims ‌against ChatGPT maker ⁠OpenAI, which is also ​a ‌defendant in the lawsuit.

Musk’s ​companies, Apple ⁠and OpenAI did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
