OpenAI Battles NYT Over 120 Million ChatGPT Logs in Copyright Dispute

OpenAI is embroiled in a legal battle with the New York Times and other news organizations over copyright infringement. The news organizations demand access to 120 million ChatGPT user conversation logs to prove unauthorized use of their content. OpenAI argues this request is excessive, violating user privacy and delaying the case. Microsoft, a co-defendant, is also involved, with its internal ChatGPT equivalent potentially adding fuel to the fire. The core issue revolves around balancing copyright protection with user privacy and defining fair use in the context of AI models.
