OpenAI accuses The New York Times of 'hacking' ChatGPT
The company alleges the newspaper manipulated its products to produce examples of copyright infringement for a lawsuit.
OpenAI, a US-based artificial intelligence firm, has accused The New York Times of hacking into its products, including ChatGPT, to create instances of copyright infringement for a lawsuit against the company.
In a recent filing in a Manhattan federal court, OpenAI requested a federal judge to dismiss parts of the lawsuit, claiming The New York Times made "tens of thousands of attempts to generate highly anomalous results."
According to OpenAI, The New York Times employed "deceptive prompts that blatantly violate OpenAI’s terms of use," and alleges that "the Times paid someone to hack into OpenAI's products."
In December, the news organization filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and its supporter Microsoft, claiming the companies unlawfully used millions of its published news articles to train ChatGPT and enhance the chatbot’s intelligence without obtaining permission.
