Gaming Network Claims Prior Rights as Musk’s AI Venture Enters Market

Ex Populus operates one of the highest transaction volume blockchain gaming networks globally, offering AI-driven gaming solutions and autonomous software systems across multiple platforms.

Musk’s November 2024 announcement that xAI would “start an AI game studio to make games great again” directly entered Ex Populus’s established gaming territory.

The post reached over 36 million viewers, which further amplified consumer confusion between the two brands operating in overlapping markets.

The complaint details widespread marketplace confusion, including xAI’s own AI assistant Grok mistakenly informing users that “XAI_GAMES refers to xAI’s gaming initiatives.”
