OpenAI Accuses Apple of Receiving Stolen Trade Secrets

OpenAI has accused a former employee of stealing corporate secrets and sharing them with Apple, countering Apple's legal claims that OpenAI staff accessed and stole files related to artificial intelligence (AI)-powered devices. The accusation emerged hours before a scheduled hearing on Apple's allegations.

Why it matters: Practitioners managing intellectual property and insider threats should monitor how courts treat stolen trade secrets cases, as the outcome may reshape liability frameworks for companies receiving potentially compromised information from departing employees.
