According to documents submitted to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, OpenAI has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit brought by The New York Times over copyright infringement allegations. The company argued that the newspaper's claims do not meet journalistic standards and alleged that someone was paid to "hack" the company's products.
The New York Times, one of the leading newspapers in the U.S., filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft on December 27, 2023, alleging unauthorized use of artificial intelligence technologies and copyright infringement.
The newspaper claimed that OpenAI trained chatbots that compete with news organizations by using millions of its published articles without permission.
This makes The New York Times the first major media organization to sue the developers of ChatGPT and other popular artificial intelligence platforms over copyright issues related to its written works.
