"The company says OpenAI is pursuing unfair advantages in the race to develop AI technology. OpenAI is targeting those individuals with knowledge of xAI's key technologies and business plans, including xAI's source code and its operational advantages in launching data centers, then inducing those employees to breach their confidentiality and other obligations to xAI through unlawful means, the lawsuit states."
"Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI has accused rival OpenAI of stealing its trade secrets in a new lawsuit, the latest in Musk's legal assault on his former business partner, Sam Altman. The lawsuit, filed on Wednesday in California federal court, alleged that OpenAI was engaged in a deeply troubling pattern of hiring away former xAI employees to gain access to trade secrets related to its AI chatbot Grok."
xAI filed a lawsuit in California federal court accusing OpenAI of systematically hiring away former xAI employees to obtain trade secrets about its AI chatbot Grok. The complaint alleges OpenAI targeted individuals with knowledge of xAI's source code, key technologies, business plans and operational advantages in launching data centers, and induced breaches of confidentiality through unlawful means. The suit names former engineer Xuechen Li, Jimmy Fraiture and an unnamed senior finance executive as hires tied to the alleged campaign. The filing notes prior lawsuits between xAI and OpenAI and describes growing hostility between Elon Musk and Sam Altman. Spokespeople did not immediately comment, and the complaint included an email screenshot from Musk and xAI's lawyer.
