8 Daily Newspapers Sue OpenAI and Microsoft Over A.I.

Eight daily newspapers owned by Alden Global Capital have filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, alleging copyright infringement. The newspapers, including The New York Daily News and The Chicago Tribune, accuse the tech companies of using millions of copyrighted articles without permission to train their A.I. chatbots. The complaint highlights that the chatbots displayed entire articles behind paywalls without proper attribution, potentially reducing subscription revenue for the newspapers. The lawsuit does not specify monetary damages but calls for a jury trial and compensation for the unauthorized use of content.

The lawsuit underscores the ongoing battle over online data usage in the realm of artificial intelligence. By targeting OpenAI and Microsoft, the newspapers aim to protect their intellectual property and financial interests. This legal action raises important questions about the ethical implications of utilizing copyrighted material to power A.I. technologies. It also sheds light on the complex relationship between traditional media outlets and tech giants in the digital age. The outcome of this case could have significant implications for how data is sourced and utilized in the A.I. industry.
