'This place is crazy': Ex-Apple engineer's texts highlight OpenAI's AI-centric workplace
Apple filed a trade secrets lawsuit against OpenAI and OpenAI publicly released a series of text messages as part of its defense.
A former Apple engineer, Chang Liu, has shed light on the distinct workplace cultures at Apple and OpenAI through texts released by OpenAI in response to Apple's trade secrets lawsuit. Liu, who joined OpenAI after leaving Apple, expressed his excitement about working at the startup, stating, "This place is crazy... we use AI all over the place."
Liu's sentiments contrast with Apple's more reserved approach, as CEO Tim Cook has emphasized AI's significance in the company's future without detailing its internal use. The texts highlight the differences between Apple and OpenAI's internal AI integration, with Liu's former company preferring a more secretive approach.
