Apple, OpenAI head to court over AI trade secrets, with the case on the line

A federal judge in San Jose hears two opposed motions on the same day, Apple’s request to stop OpenAI using anything taken from it and OpenAI’s request to throw the case out. Apple won part of its expedited discovery on Tuesday, and was refused part of it. Apple and OpenAI are in court in San Jose on Wednesday, with two opposed motions heard at once. One would bind OpenAI for the length of the case. The other would end it. US District Judge Edward Davila has both in front of him, Bloomberg reported. It is the first substantial hearing since Apple sued in July. Apple wants an order requiring OpenAI to stop using any confidential information taken from it, and to stop seeking more. OpenAI wants the case dismissed.
