The outcome of this is probably going to be the same as similar cases — the end user (ie OpenAI in this case) must properly follow the law. It could be the media companies using AI that must evaluate the legality though.
In any case, AI is a tool, not capable of reasoning. As such, the end user is responsible for ensure all applicable laws are followed. This is always the case. You wouldn’t sue Microsoft for copy & paste would we? It lets you copy people’s work.
Imo the NYT case is pretty damn weak, because derived works are fair game. I can even read their article in full and provide comments on it, and it’s legal (provided the objective isn’t to share the copyrighted work)
