The New York Times, a prominent U.S. publication, has initiated a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, allegedly due to copyright violations that resulted in massive financial losses.

The legal claim highlights that numerous articles from The New York Times were utilized for the training of artificial intelligence systems.

The New York Times particularly points out that while OpenAI has secured significant financial backing, it appears to be leveraging The Times' extensive investment in its journalism for free.

It's noted in the lawsuit that The New York Times had approached OpenAI as early as April to settle this matter, but these attempts at negotiation did not culminate in an agreement.
