India, Aug. 4 -- Apple Inc. (AAPL) has stepped up its trade-secrets lawsuit against OpenAI, asking a court for a preliminary injunction that would stop the company from developing an AI device or any other products that Apple says may be built using its proprietary technology.
Apple also says its investigation has turned up signs that more former employees may have been involved. In a new filing, Apple requested expedited discovery from OpenAI; the hardware startup co-founded by former Apple designer Jony Ive; and former Apple employees Chang Liu and Tang Yew Tan.
Apple said it has identified 11 additional former employees who may have witnessed or taken part in the alleged misuse of confidential information.
