New York Times Alleges Microsoft Built Supercomputer to Aid OpenAI's Copyright Infringement

The New York Times has filed a motion to amend its copyright lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, claiming Microsoft built a supercomputer to intentionally encourage copyright infringement. The amendment follows a Supreme Court ruling that raised the bar for contributory infringement claims, requiring proof of intentional inducement. An NYT spokesperson stated that the new complaint is based on fresh evidence uncovered during discovery.
