OpenAI responds again to Apple’s trade-secret lawsuit, arguing the case has no merit and that it is not aware of evidence supporting the claims. In an additional statement following an earlier response on Friday, OpenAI says it is focused on developing its own technology rather than using or seeking trade secrets from other companies. The company also frames its position by stating it is unaware of any evidence that would show Apple’s lawsuit is valid. Reporting from NDTV characterizes the latest statement as an expansion of OpenAI’s initial reply, which emphasized that it has no interest in trade secrets belonging to other firms. TechCrunch similarly reports that OpenAI pushes back, stating the lawsuit lacks merit. The dispute centers on allegations related to trade secrets, but both reports focus on OpenAI’s denial of the premise and its claim that there is insufficient or nonexistent evidence to support Apple’s case. Neither source provides new details about specific alleged misappropriation, remedies sought, or independent findings, focusing instead on OpenAI’s continued legal and factual rebuttal.
