AI developers have used millions of newspaper articles to train chatbots. The publication estimates its damage in the billions of dollars.

The American edition of The New York Times on Wednesday, December 27, sued OpenAI and Microsoft, accusing them of copyright infringement. According to The Times, these companies used millions of newspaper articles without permission to train chatbots that provide information to readers, Reuters reports.

The newspaper’s lawsuit, filed in federal court in Manhattan, accuses the companies of trying to “free ride the NYT’s massive investment in its journalism” to create alternative ways of delivering information to readers.

“There is nothing ‘transformative’ about using Times content without paying to create products that replace the Times and distract audiences from it,” the publication said.

OpenAI and Microsoft said they consider using copyrighted works to teach artificial intelligence products “fair use.”

Fair use is a legal doctrine that allows the use of copyrighted material without the permission of the copyright owner in certain cases.

The New York Times did not seek a specific amount of damages, but the newspaper estimated that it was in the billions of dollars. He also demands that OpenAI and Microsoft destroy educational kits containing materials from the newspaper.

Negotiations between the newspaper and the defendants to reach a “mutual beneficial agreement” were unsuccessful this year.

It was previously reported that scientists have created a “sommelier” from AI. The technology makes it possible to track not only the specific region where the grapes are grown, but also the estate where the wine was made.
