Microsoft (MSFT) and OpenAI are being sued by nearly 400 newspapers
Nearly 400 newspapers have filed a lawsuit against Microsoft and OpenAI, alleging that their generative AI products have scraped copyrighted content without permission or compensation. The suit claims that Microsoft "secretly crawled" websites, including paywalled content, to train AI models. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has previously stated the company would cover legal costs for copyright infringement claims, and this lawsuit follows similar actions by authors and publishers against AI companies.
