🚨 BREAKING: Apple is suing OpenAI for stealing trade secrets
APPLE: OpenAI “deliberately and systematically” stole confidential info from Apple employees
Chang Liu (ex-Apple engineer) kept his Apple laptop, found “bug” to access Apple cloud storage
Liu: “LOL, I found out I can access the [network storage], so funny”
>downloaded confidential files WHILE working at OpenAI
Tang Tan 24 YEARS at Apple
>VP of iPhone and Watch design
>now OpenAI’s Chief Hardware Officer
Tan used Apple codenames to extract info from Apple employees interviewing at OpenAI
Tan told candidates to bring “actual parts” (batteries, logic boards) for “show and tell”
Tan circulated Apple offboarding doc to teach OpenAI hires to dodge Apple’s exit security
>400+ Apple employees POACHED
Apple emailed OpenAI about it in February
>OpenAI never responded
Filing says OpenAI’s hardware business is “rotten to its core” and this is “the tip of the iceberg.”

Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.

America turned 250 and New York really dressed for the occasion.
