Apple Sues OpenAI Over Hardware Theft | Sacramento News
Description
Apple is suing OpenAI, accusing them of stealing trade secrets to build their own AI hardware — a major blow to their once-cooperative relationship. Two former Apple engineers, including Tang Tan (ex-Apple Watch and iPhone designer, now OpenAI’s chief hardware officer) and Chang Liu (an electrical engineer who left earlier this year), are named in the suit. Apple claims they accessed confidential tech before joining OpenAI, which is developing a new physical AI assistant — think voice-activated devices, but more advanced. Apple says they warned OpenAI in February, but got no response, and now they’re standing firm to protect their innovations.
