The lawsuit involving The New York Times vs. OpenAI and Microsoft has caused legal experts to forecast what this case could mean for copyrights, publishers and AI developers alike.
In a landmark legal battle, The New York Times (NYT) has taken on OpenAI and Microsoft, alleging copyright infringement during the training of its AI models with information wrongfully sourced from the publication’s archive.
Both parties have released back and forth statements on their take on the situation, with OpenAI calling the NYT's claims “meritless” and the prosecution saying OpenAI’s usage of the material was “not fair use by any measure."
The case has drawn attention from both AI and legal experts, who are closely watching how it could reshape the landscape of AI regulation and the rights of content creators.
