Apple has filed new evidence in its lawsuit claiming former employee Chang Liu stole confidential trade secrets to benefit OpenAI. The evidence includes use of a secret Apple circuit schematic and an internal tool name in Liu's work at OpenAI. Apple alleges Liu and an OpenAI colleague destroyed evidence after learning of the investigation. OpenAI denies wrongdoing, attributing access issues to Apple's system management. Apple seeks a court order to block OpenAI from using its technology in hardware and expedited evidence gathering, citing over 400 former Apple employees now at OpenAI.
