OpenAI Responds to Musk's Lawsuit

OpenAI CEO Altman and President Brockman face a lawsuit from Elon Musk, alleging deviation from responsible AI goals. Musk claims OpenAI's ties with Microsoft contradict its open-source mission. OpenAI refutes allegations, citing progress towards its mission without Musk's involvement. Musk seeks legal action to halt Microsoft benefits, sparking debate on AI ethics and corporate influence. OpenAI stands firm against lawsuit, emphasizing its commitment to advancing AI for humanity.

Apple Loses China's Top Smartphone Spot

Apple's iPhone sales in China have dropped by 24% in the first six weeks of 2024, causing the company to lose its position as the top-selling smartphone in the country, according to a report by Counterpoint Research. The iPhone held 19% of the market share in China in 2023, but that has now fallen to 15.7%. Vivo, a Chinese tech multinational, has taken over the top spot, followed by Huawei, Honor, and Apple in fourth.

The decline in sales is attributed to stiff competition from Huawei and aggressive pricing from other Chinese brands like OPPO, Vivo, and Xiaomi.
