OpenAI asks for Apple’s trade secrets lawsuit to be dismissed, says it was filed without ‘adequate investigation’

OpenAI has requested a federal judge to dismiss Apple's trade secrets lawsuit, calling the claims meritless and filed without adequate investigation. The filing defends former Apple employees Tang Yew Tan and Chang Liu, asserting that their conduct followed standard industry recruiting practices. While Apple is pursuing a preliminary injunction for an October 1 court hearing, OpenAI argues the complaint twists ordinary actions out of context. This complex legal dispute could take several years to reach a final resolution.
