Marketing materials and video related to a blockbuster partnership between former Apple Inc. designer Jony Ive and OpenAI Inc. were removed from the web due to a trademark dispute.

Social media users noticed Sunday that a video and website hosted by OpenAI that announced the artificial intelligence company’s $6.5 billion acquisition of Ive’s secretive AI hardware startup IO Products were no longer online, prompting speculation about a hiccup in the agreement.
