IT’S ALL A BIG MISUNDERSTANDING!OpenAI says ‘Apple is getting this wrong’
Apple’s lawsuit against OpenAI, in which the iPhone company claims OpenAI staff stole its trade secrets, is based on a series of comical misunderstandings, OpenAI said in a blog post yesterday titled “Apple is getting this wrong.”
“Apple had claimed that they contacted OpenAI in February and that we didn’t respond,” OpenAI said. “They now admit that their outside lawyers emailed the wrong person after confusing two Asian last names—only after we brought this to their attention. Apple also claimed they had a discussion with our General Counsel, which they now concede never happened.”
Sam Altman’s company also complains that the ex-Apple staff who work for him only accessed Apple information after they left the company because Apple asked them to, after it failed to access the files in their absence. Read the whole thing—including the text messages and emails—here.
