SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has been embroiled in a battle with Apple over its satellite connectivity features, according to The Information.
iPhone Satellite Feature
The report claims when SpaceX CEO Elon Musk heard that Apple was planning to announce a satellite connectivity feature for the iPhone 14 in partnership with Globalstar, he approached the company with an offer. He proposed that SpaceX would exclusively provide satellite connectivity to iPhones for 18 months, for an upfront cost of $5 billion. After that, Apple would pay SpaceX $1 billion per year for Starlink service.

Elon has such insane leverage right now it's wild.

You do realize that at this stage Grok and other AI are FOS. They make stuff up including the references to look legit but it is pure BS. Saw a law firm is in trouble for BS AI info, citations, filings, etc.. Saw where students are failing for copying AI that was fake data/info including citations, saw a cop get arrested for rights violations based on AI.
The list is lengthy now. ETA: I won't blindly follow a map /driving app, not about to put any faith in AI at this point.

Yep. He’s done. His stock has gone from $221 in March to $358 yesterday and up $9 pre market

Globalstar
Globalstar's headquartered in Covington LA. It's owned by Apple Inc. It's surprising Apple would partner with a company it owns.

The deal was a couple years before Apple bought a stake, and it doesn’t own it outright. Still publicly traded but Apple has 20% of it.

Friggin brilliant. I'd buy this phone / cell / home internet / grok(AI) plan.
