A 38 page federal complaint filed Sept. 4 in Manhattan alleges OpenAI and Microsoft scraped journalism from The Seattle Times and Newsday to train AI products without license or payment. The lawsuit claims the companies committed copyright and trademark infringement by using published reporting to power their software.
The legal challenge follows a similar suit from the New York Times, expanding a conflict between media publishers and AI developers over data usage. The filing seeks compensation for the use of intellectual property in the creation and operation of large language models.
