On September 4th (local time), "The Seattle Times" and "Newsday" took legal action by filing a lawsuit on Friday in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. They accused OpenAI and Microsoft of copying news content from their publications without permission, using it to train their artificial intelligence systems. The newspapers highlighted that the AI products developed by the defendants are capable of reproducing their news excerpts, delivering condensed summaries of articles, and providing direct answers to users. This, they argue, diminishes the incentive for users to visit their websites or subscribe to their services. Consequently, "The Seattle Times" and "Newsday" are petitioning the court to mandate the destruction of any copies of their works, along with training datasets or AI models that incorporate these works.
