One allegation that stands out is > DMCA Section 1202 violations by all defendants regarding removal of copyright management information from items in the datasets Aside from the obvious fact that OpenAI doesn't want "© 2023 The New York Times" appearing anywhere in their output, I'm sure it's also removed because LLMs don't adapt well to metadata and can't reliably correlate metadata to the exact text it's attached to, treating it instead as input text itself. One imagines a first round of training where this metadata was retained and every response from the LLM came back with a perfunctory hallucinated copyright from another publisher.
