The Ethereum-based gaming network Xai has filed a lawsuit against the artificial intelligence company xAI owned by Elon Musk, accusing it of trademark infringement and unfair competition.

🔹 Details of the lawsuit:

The lawsuit was filed in Northern California court.

The company Ex Populus, developer of the Xai network, confirms that it has been using the XAI trademark since June 2023 through its own gaming and blockchain system.

The company believes that the emergence of Musk's xAI has caused market confusion and harmed its brand reputation.

🔹 Reasons for the dispute:

Musk announced the establishment of his company xAI in July 2023.

In November 2024, he announced his intention to launch a gaming studio under the name xAI, leading to significant confusion between the two entities.

Some users and posts, and even the AI assistant Grok, have mistakenly linked the two companies.

🔹 Damages to Xai:

Loss of control over the reputation gained for its brand.

Negative association with Elon Musk due to the controversy surrounding him and xAI's products.

It has faced negative consumer backlash.

🔹 Legal steps:

The U.S. trademark office has already halted some of Musk's xAI registration requests due to similarities with Xai.

The company demands the cancellation of registration requests, compensation, and the prevention of xAI from using the name in the fields of gaming and blockchain.

⚠️ The case opens a new front in the conflict between blockchain and artificial intelligence. Will Musk be forced to change the name of his company in the gaming sector?
