OpenAI has said that The New York Times (NYT) lawsuit is without merit and that the US newspaper is not "telling the full story." Last week, NYT filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, alleging the unauthorized use of its content for the training of generative artificial intelligence and large-language model systems. This practice, adopted by The New York Times in August 2023, reflects OpenAI's commitment to responsible AI use.
