Is Remini safe to use? The AI baby generator app has taken TikTok by storm, but one cyber security expert is voicing concerns.Eight newspapers, including the Chicago Tribune , sued Microsoft and OpenAI on Tuesday, claiming the tech giants stole their copyrighted articles to "fuel the commercialization of their artificial intelligence products, including ChatGPT and Copilot .
The publishers seek compensatory damages and restitution of an unspecified amount; stopping the software companies from infringement of their content; and a jury trial. They also demanded "destruction" of models and training sets that incorporate the publishers' works.AI is the latest threat to struggling newspapers. For more than two decades, media companies have been decimated by loss of subscribers and advertising revenue as news and readers moved online.
Last year, the Washington Post and NPR let go of hundreds of journalists. Media layoffs have continued in 2024 with the Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, Business Insider, Time magazine and others slashing hundreds of jobs. Chicago Public Media, parent company of the Sun-Times, also laid off staff in April.
To create their generative AI products, Microsoft and OpenAI "scrape" newspapers' content, copying it onto their systems to train their software, the lawsuit claimed. They then offer users content that is "identical to or a slightly masked version of the newspapers' content."
