Apple walked into a federal courthouse in San Francisco on 10 July and accused OpenAI of running a coordinated raid on its trade secrets, one that reached "from members of its Technical Staff to its Chief Hardware Officer." The complaint runs to roughly 40 pages. It names two former employees, quotes interview sessions and security logs, and calls OpenAI's young hardware business "rotten to its core." The man who embodies that business — Jony Ive, the designer who gave the iPhone its soul and now builds its would-be replacement — stays invisible through all of it.That silence is the story.About The AuthorAt heart, I am a storyteller drawn to the watershed moments that bend the technology landscape. I braid narrative with data, humanise statistics, and trace the arc from first spark to world-changing impact. My reportage, features and reviews are witty, sardonic, visual and vivid, using anecdote to illuminate rather than eviscerate.
As a technology journalist with over sixteen years of experience, I have travelled the world and the seven seas, covered every major tech conference worth its lanyard, chronicled the defining breakthroughs of the last decade and a half, and played a pivotal role in launching some of India’s most important technology publishing platforms across web, print and TV.
