Summary Bullets:
• The New York Times lawsuit regarding copyright infringement highlights the challenges society faces in implementing AI technology in a responsible and ethical manner.
• GlobalData has identified six broad key categories of issues related to responsible AI: explainability; bias; ethics; hallucinations, toxicity and poisoning; data privacy and data leakage; and copyright infringement.
During the week between Christmas and New Year’s, the New York Times sued Microsoft and OpenAI for copyright infringement, making headlines during what is normally a very quiet time of year. The news organization claims that the two tech companies illegally used its content to train ChatGPT and other services they offer to consumers and enterprises. The move represents a change in strategy for the New York Times. Since last April, the newspaper had been negotiating with OpenAI and Microsoft to receive compensation for the use of its work to train large language models (LLMs; the Associated Press has a licensing deal in place), but no agreement has been reached so far. Likely, this latest move by the New York Times will reinvigorate those conversations.
