Apple Sues OpenAI Over Stolen Secrets | Denver News

Apple is suing OpenAI, claiming the AI giant stole trade secrets to build its own AI hardware for ChatGPT — a move that could shake up the tech industry.

If true, this could redefine how AI hardware is built — and who gets to lead the charge. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
