OpenAI defeats xAI’s trade secrets lawsuit

OpenAI won a legal case against xAI, which had sued claiming that OpenAI stole its trade secrets (confidential information that gives a company a competitive advantage) and hired away its employees. The judge ruled that xAI failed to prove OpenAI actually did anything wrong, noting that while eight former xAI employees did move to OpenAI, there was no evidence that OpenAI directed them to steal anything.
