OpenAI已对苹果公司的商业秘密诉讼作出回应，告知圣何塞联邦法官，该诉讼是“苹果公司自己造成的烂摊子”。OpenAI在美国地方法院提交的回应将责任推给了苹果公司的安全措施，而非前工程师的行为。此前，苹果公司曾提交文件，指控一名前工程师在OpenAI使用了其原理图。苹果公司要求加快证据开示的听证会定于10月1日举行。
OpenAI has told a San Jose federal judge that Apple's trade-secret suit against it is "a mess of Apple's own making, and it is trying to blame everyone else." The response, [filed Monday]( https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/openai-says-apple-has-only-itself-blame-trade-secret-fight-2026-09-01/) in US District Court, points the blame back at Apple's own security practices rather than at any conduct by former engineers.
The core argument is about hygiene. OpenAI says Apple encourages employees to use personal iCloud accounts to access work documents, then immediately escorts departing staff off the premises without enough time to return devices, transfer internal files or hand over responsibilities. In that account, the mixing of personal and company data is Apple's own doing.
Apple sued OpenAI and former Apple employees Tang Tan and Chang Liu in July, accusing them of misappropriating trade secrets tied to hardware design, manufacturing and supply-chain operations as Sam Altman's company pushes into consumer devices. Both sides' filings put OpenAI's hiring from Apple at roughly 400 people for that hardware initiative. OpenAI contends the suit is really about slowing a competitor and discouraging further departures, and invokes California law allowing employees to move freely between rivals.
The volley follows [yesterday's coverage]( https://aiweekly.co/alerts/apple-filing-says-ex-engineer-used-its-schematic-at-openai) of Apple's filing about a former engineer allegedly using its schematic at OpenAI, the second Apple-versus-OpenAI story on our tracker in two days. Apple's request for expedited discovery is scheduled for a hearing on October 1.
