The dispute follows a broader fight over copyright and AI training. According to Wired, The New York Times sued OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement in 2023 and has since spent more than $20 million on the case. Reuters described the litigation as a key test of AI training under copyright law.
On 05 Sep, TechCrunch AI reported that The Seattle Times and Newsday had become the latest publications to sue OpenAI and Microsoft. On 06 Sep, The Verge Tech reported that the publishers alleged infringement. The case is at its opening stage, with two more news organizations taking their copyright claims against the AI companies to court.
Assuming the reports are factual, impact is 0%. The immediate effects are limited to The Seattle Times, Newsday, OpenAI, and Microsoft through another copyright dispute. The event has produced no measured wider change for the AI or publishing industries.
Watch for court filings detailing the alleged infringement and formal responses from OpenAI and Microsoft. Subsequent rulings could change the impact assessment.
