NYT Amends Suit, Alleges Microsoft Built Custom AI Supercomputer to Train on Times Content

The New York Times moves to amend its copyright lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, arguing Microsoft actively aided training AI on NYT works via a bespoke supercomputer and that a recent Supreme Court ruling sharpens the standard for contributory infringement; two other claims are being dropped, while the core accusation that the training harmed NYT’s business and was conducted without permission remains, with OpenAI defending fair use.
