Lawsuit: Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceXAI, Google illegally agreed to slow AI
A class action filed Friday in Northern District of California claims Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceXAI, and Google violated antitrust law when their CEOs publicly backed Dario Amodei’s Sept 12 call to pace frontier AI. Named plaintiffs who pay for ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, or Gemini say a coordinated slowdown would cut what subscribers get for their money; the labs had not commented by Saturday.
