Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI may have been more about publicly criticizing the company and its co-founder, Sam Altman, than winning the case. Meanwhile, Musk has been repositioning his companies, including Tesla, for the AI age and his AI startup, xAI, recently raised $6 billion in a Series B funding round, making it the second-most valuable AI company behind OpenAI.

- Elon Musk has withdrawn his lawsuit against OpenAI and its cofounders but remains committed to winning the AI race.
- Musk has threatened to ban Apple devices at his companies if Apple integrates OpenAI at the OS level, citing it as an unacceptable security violation.
