In a tech showdown that could rival the most dramatic of courtroom dramas, Elon Musk has taken aim at Apple, accusing the tech giant of antitrust practices concerning its App Store AI rankings.


Musk, never one to shy away from a public spat, is hinting at legal action, claiming Apple is playing politics with its app ranking system.


The Tesla and SpaceX mogul alleges that Apple's App Store is unfairly manipulating AI rankings, potentially stifling innovation and competition. Musk's accusations suggest that Apple might be using its platform to favour certain apps over others, a move he deems as politically motivated.


This isn't the first time Apple's App Store practices have come under scrutiny. The tech behemoth has faced criticism and legal challenges over its stringent app approval processes and the fees it charges developers. However, Musk's allegations add a new twist to the ongoing debate about the power and influence of major tech platforms.
