U.S. Judge Dismisses xAI Lawsuit Accusing OpenAI of Stealing Trade Secrets

Odaily Planet Daily News A U.S. federal judge on Monday dismissed a lawsuit filed by Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company, xAI, against rival OpenAI. The lawsuit accused OpenAI of stealing trade secrets. U.S. District Judge Rita Lin in San Francisco, California, stated that xAI failed to prove that OpenAI induced former xAI engineer Xuechen Li to misappropriate trade secrets, nor did it prove that OpenAI disclosed xAI's trade secrets during demonstrations made while recruiting him. The judge said allowing xAI to continue the lawsuit would be "futile." She had previously dismissed an earlier version of the lawsuit in February of this year. (Jin Shi)
