In early July, Apple sued OpenAI after alleging that two ex-employees successfully stole intellectual property to enrich OpenAI’s development efforts. Now, on Thursday, a judge has been assigned to the case.
Initially, when the suit was first filed, it was randomly assigned to Magistrate Judge Virginia K. DeMarchi. Now, it seems as though U.S. District Judge Edward Davila will oversee the case.
