智通财经记者 | 宋佳楠 xAI创立于2023年7月，其宗旨是了解宇宙的真实本质。自成立以来，xAI发展迅猛，推出了多个版本的Grok模型。今年 7月，xAI新一代Grok 4大模型发布，基础版已向全球用户免费开放。 值得注意的是，马斯克于10月6日回应一则关于Grok动态生成视频游戏的帖子时，确认xAI游戏工作室将于2026年底前 发布一款AI生成游戏，表明xAI的产品覆盖范围将进一步延伸。 参与投资xAI的英伟达近期频繁出手。9月18日，英伟达与英特尔宣布达成 "历史性合作"。英伟达以每股23.28美元的价 格收购英特尔普通股，总投资额达50亿美元，持有英特尔超过4%的股权。 双方将在数据中心领域联合开发人工智能系统，英特尔将专门为英伟达定制x86架构CPU，这些处理器将与英伟达GPU 深度集成，形成高性能计算节点。在个人计算领域，英特尔还将生产集成英伟达RTX GPU的系统级芯片。 9月22日，英伟达又宣布将向OpenAI投资最多1000亿美元，称将助力OpenAI构建和部署至少10吉瓦的AI数据中心，这些 数据中心包含数百万块英伟达GPU。首个吉瓦级算力集群将基于英伟达下一代Vera Rubin平台搭 ...

被马斯克xAI起诉窃密一周后，OpenAI的回应终于来了。 OpenAI透露，已就此事件向法院递交了答辩状和驳回动议申请，不仅全面否认指控，还 斥责马斯克滥用诉权对其进行滋扰 。 并且OpenAI的这则通告立场十分强硬，直言将保护员工，不会被"霸凌行径"吓倒。 克雷西 发自 凹非寺 量子位 | 公众号 QbitAI xAI指控，OpenAI在面对Grok带来的技术竞争压力时，通过有预谋的系统性挖角对xAI进行窃密。 起诉书中列举了涉及到的xAI离职员工，并认定OpenAI的一名HR就是这一系列挖角和"窃密"行为的幕后黑手。 OpenAI则反驳称， 无意窃取任何公司的商业机密 ，xAI起诉目的是恐吓员工，而不是其声称的保护商业秘密。 同时还补刀称，xAI之所以频繁有员工离职，纯属是xAI内部或者是马斯克的问题。 可以看出，估值达到5000亿美元的OpenAI，这波回应是相当硬气了。 xAI提出三项指控 从法律层面看，xAI对OpenAI的指控一共有三项，分别是违反联邦商业秘密保护法、蓄意干扰xAI与员工的经济预期关系，以及违反加州不正 当竞争法。 作为指控的依据，xAI列举出的具体事件也是有三件。 xAI还表示 ...

xAI在诉讼文件中声称，OpenAI存在"令人深感不安的模式"和"战略性行动" 工违反保密协议，试图获取xAI的源代码、数据中心启动的运营优势、技术进步和战略业务计 系统性有预谋地挖角其员工，非法窃取商业机密。 这已经是过去一年半时间，马斯克对OpenAI发起的第六次诉讼大战，诉讼从加州法庭升级到联 邦法庭，指控也一次比一次严重，从最初的合同违约到不公平竞争到涉嫌垄断再到窃取商业机 密。 这究竟是愤愤不平要说法，还是打击竞对的场外招？又或者这两者皆有之，还有待法院给出裁 决。但可以肯定的是，两家公司的竞争已经进入了白热化，也不限于产品与商战领域，未来还会 有更多的诉讼交锋。 指控窃取商业机密 上周，马斯克旗下的人工智能创业公司xAI在加州北区联邦法院提起诉讼，指控行业巨头OpenAI 美元的数据中心运营成本。 ，故意诱导这些员 划。以在激烈的先进AI开发竞争中谋求不公平优势。 马斯克对这起诉讼的评论是：忍无可忍，无须再忍。他在自己的X平台上解释说， 们发送了多封警告函，但他们继续在欺骗作弊。在尝试其他所有方法没有结果之后，诉讼是我们 "忍无可忍，无须再忍， "马斯克这样在X平台上怒斥自己亲手创办的友商，第N次 ...
