What is the news?
Just hours after the announcement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) partnership by technology giants Apple and Google, Elon Musk has criticized it. The world’s richest man has called this collaboration an ‘undue centralization of power’ for Google. The comments came as Google confirmed a multi-year deal with Apple to provide cloud infrastructure for Gemini models and future Apple Intelligence features.

Answer given on Google’s post
Responding directly to Google’s post, Musk argued that the deal further strengthens Google’s existing dominance. He wrote, ‘Google also owns Android and Chrome, so this seems to be an unfair concentration of power for it.’ This criticism matters because his company’s Grok chatbot is a direct competitor to Google Gemini. They are also fighting a legal battle with Apple and OpenAI regarding ChatGPT integration.
These speculations are coming from the comments
Some are seeing this comment as a glimpse of possible legal action against the Apple-Google agreement, similar to their current lawsuit. Some are seeing this as xAI preparing to launch a competing product, possibly even a phone. This criticism comes at a sensitive time for both companies. While Apple is under pressure to take the lead in AI, Google is facing several antitrust cases.
