Microsoft asks to dismiss New York Times’s ‘doomsday’ copyright lawsuit
Quick Glance: Microsoft Requests Court to Dismiss Part of NYT's Copyright Lawsuit
  • Microsoft argued before a federal court that The New York Times' lawsuit against itself and OpenAI should be dismissed, drawing parallels to the movie industry's efforts against the VCR in the 1980s.

  • The company asserted that the newspaper's arguments echo those refuted by the US Supreme Court in the 1984 case involving Sony Corporation of America and Universal City Studios.

  • The VCR stance taken by Microsoft is tied to a specific aspect of the NYT lawsuit regarding the defendants' responsibility for users' copyright violations.

  • The NYT complaint laments that OpenAI and Microsoft's AI tools utilize LLMs fashioned by replicating millions of the Times' copyrighted articles.
