On September 4 (local time), The Seattle Times and Newsday filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, accusing OpenAI and Microsoft of unauthorized copying of their news reports to train artificial intelligence systems. The two media outlets claim that the defendants' AI products can replicate news passages, summarize articles, and provide answers, reducing the necessity for users to visit their official websites or subscribe. They are seeking a court order to require the destruction of copies of infringing works, as well as related training datasets and AI models. The lawsuit compares generative AI to a snake eating its own tail, arguing that it could destroy the news organizations that produce the training content.
