>The US Department of Justice has weighed in on the copyright dispute between OpenAI and The New York Times, telling a Manhattan federal court that training large language models on copyrighted text qualifies as fair use under US law.>The brief was filed Tuesday with US District Judge Sidney Stein in the Southern District of New York. This marks the first time the federal government has formally stated its position in the ongoing series of copyright lawsuits brought by authors, publishers, music labels, and news organizations against AI companies.>The DOJ called the filing a statement of interest, meaning it does not have binding legal authority.>Federal agencies use statements of interest to outline the government's position in a case without becoming a party to the lawsuit. The Justice Department used this approach in its filing.>Government lawyers argue that large language models do not copy the text they train on. Instead, the models use the material to develop general reasoning and language abilities, which the brief describes as "extraordinarily transformative" under fair use law.>The filing also points to national interests, including scientific research and national security. "The United States has a strong interest in this court rejecting any argument that training LLMs on copyrighted texts violates copyright law," the brief states.>The brief highlights research uses, noting that "LLMs are already helping researchers across fields achieve major breakthroughs." It also warns that limiting fair use could have economic consequences.>"Constraining LLM development under a misunderstanding of fair use doctrine would thwart creative and scientific progress while hindering American prosperity and economic mobility," it states.https://www.ghacks.net/2026/09/03/trump-administration-backs-open-ai-in-new-york-times-copyright-case-calling-ai-training-fair-use/
>>541988074good. If I can read it, Ai should be able too. They don't even store the articles, just the associations of words. in before NY Times cock suckers
>>541988648To legally read the book you need to purchase a copy or borrow a finite copy from a library or a license for an ebook to get it into your brain But when it's an AI that is not needed? That is still a person or a program that wants to incorporate the text into their brain.
>>541988729>But when it's an AI that is not needed?sure it is. companies buy millions of books to train Ai. they have the same access a human does. no more, probably much less
I take it this applies to all the models
>>541988648This same argument can be used to make every IP free to everyone (NTTAWWT)
>>541988944They’ve already been caught downloading large corpuses of works from pirating sites for free faggot that’s what the whole lawsuit is about
>>541988074>cyber wars
>>541988074>do not copy the text they train on. Instead, the models use the material to develop general reasoning and language abilitiesthese fucking boomers have no fucking idea what they're talking about
Not looking forward to Musk, Altman, etc. flooding all of the internet with their shitty anime variants.It's already quite dreadful to search for panels with the porno-AI spam
>>541989232stfu, memeflag fucking times loving niggerThe Times' lawsuit, first filed in 2023, accuses OpenAI and its largest financial backer, Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab, of using millions of newspaper articles without permission to train OpenAI's popular chatbot. The case is one of dozens brought by copyright holders against tech companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta Platforms for what they say is misuse of their material to train AI systems.they didn't like Ai reading their jew faggot fish wrap
>>541988074I think it should be trained on copyrighted stuff tbqh. I’ll get more use out of it which is what I need
>>541988074thus pirating and theft is also a fair use
>>541988074>corporations stealing your data and refusing to compensate you>fair uses>same thing with books>Nooo it’s only legal if you destroy the book too!There is no justice, only kikery and pilpull.
>>541988074after the dems win they had better shut down all these bullshit tech companies, they should be sued into the ground for blatant theft
