This makes me laugh:
"Specifically, The New York Times is seeking "billions of dollars in statutory and actual damages" from both AI providers for using "millions" of NYT articles by either directly quoting them or closely imitating them."

Since all news outlets use similar wording to report the same events, there's no way of proving that anything came from the New York Times. If "closely imitating" articles was lawsuit-worthy, we'd have media outlets suing each other left and right.

There's not a chance in hell that NYT is going to win here.

I'm wondering how ChatGPT managed to copy NYT content, when they keep everything behind a paywall. It's not like they can rip content without being logged into a paid account. You only get to see like 3 sentences of an article, before the login screen pops up and blocks evrything from being seen.
