Apple sues OpenAI over alleged trade secret theft

3 hours ago

Apple sued OpenAI, alleging trade secret theft and breach of contract by former Apple employees now at OpenAI, including senior leaders like Chief Hardware Officer Tang Tan.
The lawsuit accuses OpenAI of using Apple's confidential information, such as project code names and technical documents, during recruitment and product development, potentially for a competing hardware product like a smartphone.
Apple seeks court orders to prevent OpenAI from using its trade secrets, return confidential materials, and preserve evidence, claiming OpenAI's hardware business is built on misappropriated secrets and lacks transparency.
