New York Times says OpenAI hid evidence in ChatGPT copyright trial
The New York Times and The Daily News allege that OpenAI has been lying about its ability to search copyrighted content in its training datasets, following a lawsuit over copyright violations. OpenAI claims it lacked the capability to search its own data and that accessing its ChatGPT conversations would be burdensome and privacy-invading. The plaintiffs seek to compel OpenAI to provide evidence of copyrighted content and prevent its use as evidence, while OpenAI denies the allegations and argues the case is weakening. The case highlights the legal and ethical challenges of using copyrighted material to train AI models.
