AI Summary
Newly released court documents in the New York Times lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft reveal internal warnings that the firms’ data‑scraping practices were creating a “doom loop” that could harm the web. The documents label the scraping used to train their models as “the largest theft of labor in human history.” They also state the approach “makes a complete mockery of the idea of fair use.” These admissions form the core of the Times’ legal challenge to the companies’ AI training methods.
