OpenAI employee accused of planting recording device in office

A Saudi national who worked at OpenAI as an engineer is suspected of planting a recording device in one of the company's conference rooms.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets center on the same basic frame: an OpenAI staffer was arrested over a hidden recording device, and both attribute the account to the company and law enforcement. Bloomberg Technology stays broad, describing an employee arrested and charged under statements from OpenAI and the Justice Department, while TechCrunch adds that the arrest was by the FBI, identifies the worker as a Saudi national on the product team, and says the device was hidden in an executive conference room.
