Judge orders OpenAI to turn over hiring records in Apple trade secrets case

A judge ruled that Apple can get expedited access to OpenAI’s interview materials for former Apple employees who applied for roles in its consumer hardware and robotics groups, including checklists, guides, technical presentations, and records of discussions referencing Apple technology. OpenAI has five days to hand over materials it already collected and 14 days for others. Apple accused OpenAI of a pattern of theft, including former employees downloading confidential files from Apple laptops and coaching others on what to bring to interviews. The judge also allowed Apple to access private LINE messages between named individuals and approved depositions for Chang Liu, Alyssa Peng, and OpenAI’s chief hardware officer Tang Yew Tan, all former Apple employees. However, he denied expedited access to OpenAI’s R&D in areas such as metal finishes and power management, and denied several broader requests, though Apple may narrow its requests and try again.
