  More like, OpenAI has said “so what if we were speeding, everyone does it” (did that work last time you got a ticket?)

  Relevant exerpt from the article: “The company recently made a similar argument to the UK House of Lords, claiming no AI system like ChatGPT can be built without access to copyrighted content.”

    Same comment as yours, but instead of the opening paragraph with the analogy, say “Far Right Balks as Congress Begins Push to Enact Spending Deal”.

    Then, in the next paragraph where you quote the article, instead say “Congress on Monday began an uphill push to pass a new bipartisan spending agreement into law in time to avoid a partial government shutdown next week, with Speaker Mike Johnson encountering stiff resistance from his far-right flank to the deal he struck with Democrats.”

    That’s closer to what open AI is arguing that the new York times did to get it to regurgitate an article.
    Without actually seeing the prompts, it’s hard to know exactly how much merit there is to that argument.
