Apple shares ‘shocking evidence’ against former employee accused of stealing company data for OpenAI

TechCrunch has requested comment from OpenAI on Apple’s newest allegations.

Apple is seeking a preliminary injunction — a court order that would block OpenAI from working on hardware based on Apple’s technology while the case is ongoing — as well as expedited discovery, a fast-tracked process for gathering evidence, since the company alleges that more former employees may also be implicated.

According to Apple’s initial filing, more than 400 former Apple employees now work at OpenAI.
