Yesterday we commented that Elon Musk, owner of X and Grok (his AI), he believed that the App Store was not fair, and that he only positioned the apps that Apple really interested. However, as we explained, it was something absurd, and that is that Chatgpt is more used than Grok, and, therefore, it is logical that it comes out before.
Today, Apple has responded with something similar, implying that its store is loyal to reality, and that the ranking works automatically according to the popularity of that application or game, without being altered by them, so Elon is not right, and can denounce them if you wish, but you will not get anything.
Elon Musk against Apple
Elon Musk lit the fuse accusing Apple of “Ama” APP Store For Chatgpt to appear above the rest. He says that slows Grok and even X, and that it is an antitrust violation. He also released that he will take the case to court.
Apple came out quickly, denies favoritisms and ensures that the ranking is not a whim, but a mixture of tops, algorithmic recommendations and editorial selection, with focus on safety and quality. That is, if an app climbs, it is because people download it and because it passes their filters.
To finish off, Apple remembers that this year Other AI apps They have played number one (not only openai). Right now, Chatgpt is still up at all, Grok goes behind and X appears much below. Proof of favoritism or simply
something real? Yesterday we said it, and that is that everyone I know has used Chatgpt, but not everyone has tried Grok, so the illogical would be that it appeared above Openai's.
From the other shore, Sam Altman threw his pull, and that Musk would have adjusted the algorithms of X in his favor more than once, so, as the saying goes, “the thief believes that all are of his condition.” All this adds to the legal messes that Apple already drags, with antitrust demands and the eternal novel with Epic, although we believe that in this case it will not go to more, because in the background Elon knows that he is not right.
In summary, Musk accuses, Apple denies and the App Store ranking It becomes the new battlefield of the mobile AI. We will see if the fight ends in headlines or in a trial room, although for our part we see the store very fair, and we doubt that, in case it is true what Elon says, Apple does not modify that to get rid of lyos, although Grok will continue below Chatgpt, we have no doubts.
And you, do you think Elon Musk, or Apple is right? Leave us a comment with your opinion about it, and if you have ever used Grok, since we understand that Chatgpt Si.
