The Seattle Times and Newsday have filed copyright infringement lawsuits against OpenAI and Microsoft, becoming the latest news organizations to accuse the companies of using their journalism without permission to train AI models. The suits argue that content scraped from these outlets was used to build products like ChatGPT and GPT-6 Astra without compensation or consent. The filings add to a growing wave of litigation from publishers against AI companies over training-data practices, intensifying scrutiny of how large language models are built and raising questions about fair use and compensation for original journalism.
