Judge Dismisses Copyright Lawsuit Against OpenAI Over News Article Use

A federal judge ruled that Raw Story and AlterNet failed to demonstrate harm from OpenAI's use of their articles in AI training.

The lawsuit claimed OpenAI removed copyright management information from articles used to train its AI models.
Judge Colleen McMahon dismissed the case, citing a lack of evidence for concrete injury to the plaintiffs.
OpenAI argued its practices were protected by fair use and legal precedents, using publicly available data.
The plaintiffs have the option to file an amended complaint, though the judge expressed skepticism about its success.
This case is part of a broader legal landscape where AI companies face numerous copyright lawsuits.
