Can an Apple lawsuit derail OpenAI’s hardware plans?

TechCrunch 2 months ago 34 ● 4 sources

Apple sued OpenAI for allegedly recruiting Apple employees to steal trade secrets related to hardware development, with OpenAI planning to launch a mobile smart speaker. The lawsuit names OpenAI's chief hardware officer Tang Tan and alleges over 400 Apple employees now work at OpenAI. The legal action could delay OpenAI's hardware plans and complicate its confidential IPO filing expected as early as late 2024 or early 2025.
