The New York Times (NYT) is suing OpenAI and Microsoft, alleging that their AI text generators, ChatGPT and Copilot, infringe on the newspaper’s copyrights. The lawsuit raises questions about AI’s use in the news industry and the ethical and legal challenges it poses. NYT claims that ChatGPT and Copilot were trained on a dataset that includes copyrighted NYT articles, violating intellectual property rights. The outcome of the lawsuit could impact the media and tech industries, potentially changing how generative AI works and affecting the production, consumption, and monetization of news.
