OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is appealing an order not to delete any user chats, citing privacy concerns, after The New York Times requested the court for such action, alleging OpenAI's AI models were trained on the publisher's data.
In response, Altman expressed the company's commitment to fighting any demand that compromises user privacy as a core principle, escalating the need for discussions on 'AI privilege.'
US District Judge allowed some claims by media organizations against OpenAI to continue, leading to an order for data preservation that OpenAI is appealing against.
The New York Times signed a content licensing deal with Amazon, whereas various news outlets have sued OpenAI for alleged unauthorized use of their articles in training AI models.
