The New York Times Sues OpenAI and Microsoft Over Copyright Infringement
Key Points:
– The New York Times has filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft.
– The lawsuit accuses the companies of copying information from various sources to train generative AI and large-language model systems.
– The New York Times alleges that OpenAI and Microsoft gave the newspaper’s content “particular emphasis” and used it to build substitutive products without permission or payment.
– The lawsuit was filed in a Manhattan federal court.
Hot Takes:
Well, this lawsuit just goes to show that even in the world of artificial intelligence, no one is above the law (or copyright). The New York Times is taking a stand against OpenAI and Microsoft for allegedly using its content without permission or payment. It seems like these companies thought they could get away with free-riding on the Times’s journalism investment, but they’ve now found themselves in hot water. It’ll be interesting to see how this case plays out and what it means for the future of using copyrighted materials in AI development.
