I have the classics but looking for a refresh for a talk.

Thanks and Happy New Year 🥳

The case is part of a wave of lawsuits against OpenAI and other tech companies by authors, visual artists, music publishers and other copyright owners over the data used to train their generative AI systems. A lawsuit filed by The New York Times against OpenAI in December was the first from a media outlet.

Unlike similar lawsuits, Raw Story and AlterNet's complaint accused OpenAI of unlawfully removing their articles' copyright management information (CMI) without arguing that it infringed their copyrights. McMahon agreed with OpenAI that the claims should be dismissed.

"Let us be clear about what is really at stake here," McMahon said. "The alleged injury for which Plaintiffs truly seek redress is not the exclusion of CMI" but the "use of Plaintiffs' articles to develop ChatGPT without compensation."
