The New York Times Co. v. Microsoft Corp. et al. is a copyright infringement lawsuit filed by The New York Times (NYT) against Microsoft and OpenAI in December 2023. The lawsuit alleges that OpenAI trained its artificial intelligence (AI) models on NYT content without authorization and that OpenAI and Microsoft’s products can reproduce portions of copyrighted articles, which the Times states competed with its journalism. According to the Times, it is the first major news organization to sue OpenAI and Microsoft for alleged copyright infringements.
