AI Training Under Fire | Venice Beach News

The New York Times and other outlets are suing OpenAI, demanding penalties for allegedly using copyrighted news articles to train AI chatbots without permission, accusing them of hiding critical evidence. OpenAI counters by claiming user privacy protections and calls the claims “blatantly false,” sticking to a “fair use” defense. The case, which centers on discovery misconduct and unfair competition, could reshape AI training practices — especially as rivals like Anthropic pay authors billions, while others license content. With the Times already spending $28 million, this legal showdown is setting the stage for a new era in journalism and tech.
