Apple is behaving in a manner that makes it impossible for any AI company besides OpenAI to reach #1 in the App Store, which is an unequivocal antitrust violation. xAI will take immediate legal action.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
In January 2025, DeepSeek reached #1 overall on the App Store. abcnews.go.com/Business/deeps… Just one month ago, on July 18, 2025, Perplexity also reached #1 overall in India’s App Store. hindustantimes.com/technology/air… Both of these occurred after the OpenAI–Apple partnership announced on June 10, 2024. openai.com/index/openai-a…

Entrepreneurship ⤵️ Only solutions to problems.
Elon Musk breaks down how XAI built a supercluster in 122 days. No one does this type of stuff. It’s what separates Elon Musk from the rest.

🚀 Today marks 1300 days of training without missing a single day! 🚀 🏋️‍♂️ Training every single day is my non-negotiable. It’s more than a habit. It’s a commitment to myself that no matter how busy life gets, there’s always time for what’s truly important. Busy people make time, not excuses. 🔥 💪 If you want to achieve an outcome, consistency is key. Show up every day, push your limits, and watch how you transform – not just physically, but mentally and emotionally too. ✨ @Strava @WHOOP @Garmin @Apple

🧱 In May 2017, @Miltzi, @goldmanbdg, @__JonJon and I set out on a crazy journey, which would ultimately become @BitFund. 👨‍⚖️ At the time, I was a candidate attorney, and had to spend evenings and weekends working on our start-up. There was minimal support from my legal colleagues, and the sentiment remained the same - don't waste your time building a business when you have a legal career ahead of you. 🤯 6⃣ For the past 6+ years, we have build BitFund in some of the darkest spaces. Nothing went according to plan, but we carried on, remained consistent, and never gave up. 🚀 🤝 As BitFund's retail business now moves into @Altifyinvest, I'm super excited to see what the future holds. ⤵️ We've spent the last few months working with the best people at Altify, and we're super excited to see this journey continue! 🟢 🦾 To those who dare - be relentless! And to those who critique building a business without trying it - "go **** ******** (@elonmusk's words)" 🖕
🔴 The news is out! 🔗 As of 1 December 2023, @BitFund, Revix and @coinpanioncom have joined forces and together, have formed a new alternative investment platform called @Altifyinvest.

@okolom9 is a legend!
This video is 17 seconds long but it perfectly illustrates how friendly South Africans are! Just watch to the end to see what I mean 😂 I travel a lot from OR Tambo and the guy in this video is always funny and welcoming like this. Well done @Discovery_SA for picking him to man your “Priority Fast Track”. He’s a winner 😂

Imagine South Africa retained @VinnyLingham, @elonmusk, @DavidSacks, Mark Shuttleworth, Rodney Sacks, Hilton Schlosberg and more... Sad reality but South Africa has exported the best for so many reasons. 😢
This is what happens when you export entrepreneurs…

To my earlier point, whilst merit may exist in this matter, politics seems to prevail, often over common sense, entrepreneurship and innovation. The SEC had numerous alternatives to engaging with @Ripple and find alternative solutions to a protracted and costly litigation.

There is always a fine line between regulating to protect consumers and regulating which stifles innovation. 👀 Generally, regulators stifle innovation, watch innovation fail, and then reconsider the position. By this point, it's too late and new entrants are in the market. 😢
