US prosecutors allege Saudi royal links in OpenAI bugging case

US prosecutors allege a former OpenAI engineer secretly installed a recording device in a conference room to gather company details. Abdulrahman Alfozan is accused of bugging the facility and planned to fly to Saudi Arabia. Prosecutors argue that Alfozan should remain detained in the US, citing his considerable support from a foreign government. The case highlights allegations of Saudi royal links regarding the attempt to illicitly obtain sensitive information from the artificial intelligence firm.
