That is absolutely not true in this case. If what Apple alleges is true, the closest example we can look to is Waymo vs Uber. Where Uber ended up settling, they paid Google a quarter of a billion in stock, agreed not to use the IP they had stolen and fired the engineer involved. This could very easily just kill OpenAI's hardware product, they might literally not be able to release what they've built. At that point they have to decide whether they start again from scratch, with monitoring to ensure they aren't using any of the IP or they just give up on this expensive distraction from their core business in the run up to an IPO.
