Politico: Judge Mark Pittman blocked OpenAI from seeing Apple's confidential deal with X and SpaceXAI.

For context, after Musk's companies permanently dropped their case against Apple, OpenAI asked the court to reveal the secret settlement between them.

OpenAI wanted to know whether that agreement contained anything it could use to fight Musk's remaining lawsuit against OpenAI.

Judge Mark Pittman made Apple and Musk's companies give him the settlement privately, read it himself, and decided it contained nothing relevant to the case against OpenAI.

So the settlement stays secret, and OpenAI cannot use it as evidence in its defense.
