Apple sued OpenAI for allegedly stealing hardware secrets through former Apple employees, including OpenAI's chief hardware officer who spent 24 years at Apple. OpenAI has hired over 400 former Apple employees and paid $6.5 billion to acquire IO Products co-founded by longtime Apple executives including Jony Ive.
