The Technie, which is claimed to have shown Sam Altman and Jony IVE a drawing of Amnesty International, a lawsuit was filed against the former employer

In the latest developments, IYO Inc. , Who filed a lawsuit against IVE and Openai, Sam Altman, CEO of Openai to violate trademarks, now to sue one of its former employees for allegedly leaking a secret fee for the unprecedented IYO product.

At the heart of these bitter legal quarrels, there is a big idea: we should not need to stare on computer or phone screens or talk to a box like Amazon’s Alexa to interact with our future aides in a natural way. Anyone who comes with this new artificial intelligence interface can benefit from it greatly.

Openai began determining its own vision in May by buying IO products, a product and engineering company that Ive is participating in, in a deal valued at about $ 6.5 billion. Soon after, IYO filed a lawsuit against the violation of the brands of the similar sounding name and due to the previous interactions of the two companies.

Trina Thompson, the American boycott judge, ruled last month that IYO had a strong issue enough to move forward at the hearing of this fall. Until then, I ordered Altman, IVE and Openai to refrain from using the IO brand, forcing them to download the web page and all project signs.

A second lawsuit from IYO accuses this week at the Supreme Court of San Francisco, a former IYO executive official, Dan Sargent, of violating the contract and embezzlement of commercial secrets during his meetings with another founder from IO, Tang Ye Tan, a close ally that leads the design design from The Design of the apple He watches.

Sargent Iu left in December and is now working with Apple. He and Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

“This is not a procedure that we take gently,” Jason Rogolo, CEO of IYO said in a statement on Thursday. “Our primary goal here is not to target a former employee, we are considered a friend, but rather that we take responsibility for those who believe he is highlighting the position of power.”

Rogolo told the Associated Press last month that he believed he was on the right path in 2022 when he erected his ideas and showed his initial models of companies associated with Adman and Eve. Rugolo later publicly expanded its producer “Computer Audio Computer”, which resembles his ear in TED talk last year.

What he did not know is that after a short time, Ive and Altman will begin to cooperate quietly with the initiative of their artificial intelligence devices and give them a similar name.

“I am delighted to compete for the product, but described it with the same name, this part is amazing to me. It was horrific,” Rogolo said in an interview.

The new project was publicly disclosed in the May Video Announcement, and to Rugolo about two months ago after he sent an email to Altman with an investment court.

“Thank you, but I am working on something competitive so it will pass (respect)!” Altman wrote to Rugolo in March, adding that it was called IO.

Altman rejected a lawsuit against social media on social media as a “ridiculous and disappointing movement and a mistake” from Ragolo “very fixed.” Other executives in the court documents described that the product that was offering them as a failure did not work properly in a experimental offer.

Altman said in a written advertisement that he and IVE chose the name “IO” two years ago, referring to the concept of “input/output” that describes how to receive the computer and transfer information. Io nor IYO was the first to play with drafting – the Great Annual Technology Gallery of Google is called I/O – but Altman said it and IVE acquired the name IO.com in August 2023.

Altman said the idea was “creating products that exceed traditional products and interfaces.” “We want to create new ways for people to enter their requests and new ways for them to receive useful outputs, supported by artificial intelligence.”

A number of companies have already tried, and have often failed to build tools for artificial intelligence reactions. Humane has developed a start -up pin that you can talk to, but it was badly reviewed and the startup has stopped after that HP She got her assets earlier this year.

Altman suggested that the IO version could be different. “The most wonderful part of the technology that the world had ever seen.”

They still did not say what he did not say exactly what it is. However, the court case forced its team to reveal what is otherwise.

“It has not been completed yet, but it is not an internal device, nor a device that can be worn,” Tan said in the court’s announcement that sought to remove the project from the IYO product.

It was the same announcement that prompted IYO to sue Sargent this week. Tan revealed in the deposit that he spoke to a former “” “” “” former “engineer looking for a job because of his frustration with” slow IYO bot, unconcerned product plans, and pre -product acceptance without a product that can be sold. ”

Those conversations with the employee whose name did not reveal led to the conclusion that “IYO was mainly provided” steam programs ” – the announcement of a product that does not already exist or work as it is announced, and my instinct was to avoid interviewing IYO myself and to thwart others to do so.

Iu said that her investigators recently contacted Sargent and confirmed that he was the person who met Batan.

Rugolo AP told that he was deceived after he first put his idea to Altman in 2022 through APOLLO projects, an investment capital company that Altman started and his brothers. Rogolo said that his products politely rejected the company, with the interpretation that they did not invest consumer devices.

In the same year, Rugolo also put the same idea to enter it through lovefrom, the San Francisco design company that Ive started after leaving Apple. Eve also decreased.

“I feel stupid now,” Rogolo added. “Because we talked for a long time. I met them many times and try all people – at least seven people there. I personally met them with a set of times, talking about all our ideas.”
