Apple Sues OpenAI, Google Rewrites Search

This Reddit post combines two stories:
- Apple sues OpenAI, alleging trade secret misappropriation. The post cites details from the complaint, such as former Apple employees being asked to bring physical parts for "show and tell" during interviews, and being able to access Apple's network storage and download unreleased product files after leaving.
- Google search results redesign: The post says search results are no longer the traditional ten blue links but a page generated by Gemini with source embeddings, and cites a claim that click-through rates dropped by 58% with AI summaries, emphasizing this rewrites the rules for website traffic acquisition.
The post concludes that for businesses with websites, content strategies, and digital presence, this is not a future trend but an environmental change already happening.
