OpenAI claims New York Times misused ChatGPT to fabricate lawsuit evidence

OpenAI seeks to dismiss parts of The New York Times' copyright lawsuit, alleging the newspaper used deceptive methods to generate evidence.

OpenAI has requested a federal judge to dismiss parts of a copyright lawsuit filed by The New York Times, accusing the newspaper of employing deceptive tactics to generate misleading evidence, according to a recent Reuters report. However, courts have yet to provide a clear verdict on the fair use question in the context of AI, with some infringement claims being dismissed due to insufficient evidence of AI-generated content resembling copyrighted works closely. The company also posits that AI models acquiring knowledge from various sources, including copyrighted materials, is inevitable and cannot be legally prevented, drawing a parallel with traditional journalistic practices of re-reporting news.
