X Corp and SpaceXAI LLC filed a motion on September 14, 2026 in the US District Court for the Northern District of Texas asking to voluntarily dismiss, with prejudice, their antitrust claims against Apple Inc. in the case they brought in August 2025. The one-page motion states that the plaintiffs "have resolved their claims in this Action against Defendant Apple," that Apple does not oppose the dismissal, and that plaintiffs "do not seek to dismiss any of their claims" against the remaining defendants, OpenAI Foundation (formerly OpenAI, Inc.), OpenAI, L.L.C., and OpenAI OpCo, LLC. The filing does not disclose why the parties resolved the Apple claims, whether any payment changed hands, or whether either side admitted wrongdoing. The underlying suit had alleged that Apple's integration of OpenAI's ChatGPT into its device operating systems disadvantaged competing AI chatbot makers and reduced consumer choice, and separately alleged that OpenAI maintains an unlawful monopoly over the chatbot market through anticompetitive practices. Those allegations against OpenAI have not been resolved and remain contested in the litigation, which continues before Judge Mark Pittman.
