马斯克 xAI 怒告中国工程师（2）：法官下令，限 3 天内上交设备，AI 研发立马暂停

Core Viewpoint - xAI has filed a lawsuit against former employee Li Xuechen for allegedly stealing core technology and confidential data related to Grok, which may be integrated into OpenAI's ChatGPT. The lawsuit claims that Li transferred sensitive information to personal storage devices and cashed out $7 million from two contracts before leaving the company [1]. Summary by Sections Legal Action - xAI has requested a court injunction against Li Xuechen, which includes multiple restrictions on his activities related to commercial secrets and employment [1]. - A federal judge has issued an emergency restraining order against Li, requiring him to submit all personal electronic devices and cloud accounts for judicial investigation within three days [3][5]. Restrictions Imposed - The injunction includes the following specific requirements: - Control of devices/accounts: Li must transfer control of devices and provide full access for password recovery [1]. - Data disposal ban: Li is prohibited from deleting, altering, or transferring any form of data [1]. - Protection of trade secrets: Li cannot use, copy, or disseminate confidential information or assist competitors in using it [1]. - Employment activity restriction: Li is suspended from working at OpenAI or any AI-related activities until xAI confirms the deletion of the stolen data [1]. Legal Framework - The case is supported by the Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA) enacted in 2016, which allows trade secret owners to sue in federal court for improper use of their secrets [8]. - Historical precedents indicate that companies have successfully used this law to protect their sensitive information, even when the accused claim to have deleted the stolen data [8][9]. Future Proceedings - The injunction will remain in effect until xAI confirms the deletion of the relevant trade secrets, with a hearing scheduled for October 7 to discuss potential extensions or modifications of the order [6].
