OpenAI Wins Partial Victory in Copyright Lawsuit Against NYT
2025-04-05

The New York Times sued OpenAI for copyright infringement, alleging ChatGPT's unauthorized use of its content. A judge dismissed some claims, including those of 'free-riding' and removal of copyright management information, but upheld others, finding that OpenAI had at least reason to investigate and uncover end-user infringement. OpenAI argued its AI training is fair use and highlighted ChatGPT's benefits. The ruling is likely disappointing for news publishers, but a partial win for OpenAI.
