OpenAI ordered to turn over 20 million ChatGPT logs in copyright dispute with media outlets

OpenAI is ordered to turn over 20 million anonymized ChatGPT conversation logs in a copyright infringement lawsuit with The New York Times and others. Judge Wang rejected OpenAI's privacy objections, stating that the logs will reveal whether ChatGPT reproduced copyrighted news content without authorization. Critics view OpenAI's resistance as a sign of guilt, while the company argues that user privacy should not be compromised.
