Employee who moved from OpenAI to Apple accused of sending more than 100 files about an unreleased product to a personal account

Reuters reports that in an October 2026 court filing, OpenAI alleged an employee who moved to Apple sent more than 100 files about an unreleased product to a personal account and later gave a presentation about the product to senior Apple leadership. Apple said it found no evidence supporting OpenAI's allegations. Apple filed the original trade-secret lawsuit, alleging former employees took confidential information to OpenAI's hardware division; OpenAI has denied those allegations.
