Musk Accuses Apple of Unfairly Favoring OpenAI on iPhone

In a series of tweets, Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, criticized Apple's app store practices, accusing the company of unfairly favoring OpenAI, a rival artificial intelligence company. Musk claimed that Apple's 30% commission on in-app purchases is an "effective 30% tax on the internet" and that the company is "basically taxing the internet." Musk also suggested that Apple has threatened to remove Twitter from the App Store, which he recently acquired. He alleged that Apple has stopped advertising on Twitter and questioned whether the company was "threatening to withhold Twitter from the App Store." Apple's policies regarding the App Store and its commission structure have been the subject of ongoing scrutiny and debate within the tech industry. Musk's criticisms add to the ongoing tensions between tech giants and highlight the complex issues surrounding the control and distribution of digital content and services.
