Apple filed a trade-secrets lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging misconduct that extends to senior leadership (including OpenAI’s chief hardware officer). The complaint also cites that more than 400 former Apple employees now work at OpenAI. While not a market-wide shock, the litigation risk and IP concerns are likely to be a meaningful overhang for OpenAI/AI peers and could move related tech stocks by a modest amount.
