Court orders OpenAI to submit 20 million ChatGPT user logs to The New York Times

Mars Finance News: According to Decrypt, U.S. federal judge Ona T. Wang has denied OpenAI’s request to restrict evidence disclosure, ordering the company to provide The New York Times with approximately 20 million anonymized ChatGPT user conversation records. The court determined that this data is crucial to establishing whether ChatGPT reproduced content protected by The New York Times’ copyright and is “proportional to the needs of the case.” Although OpenAI expressed concerns over user privacy, the judge noted that privacy considerations are “only one factor in the proportionality analysis and cannot outweigh clear relevance and minimal burden.”
