00:00OpenAI appeals order to turn over chat GPT conversations.
00:04Artificial intelligence giant OpenAI currently finds itself in a legal tussle against the New York Times
00:10and other similar news outlets over a copyright infringement lawsuit.
00:14As a result, a New York judge asked it to turn over 20 million anonymized chat GPT chat logs.
00:21Now, OpenAI has issued a counter-filing stating that complying with the said request
00:25would also expose the private conversations of its users.
00:29OpenAI is actively trying to overturn the ruling passed by New York's magistrate judge Ona Wang,
00:39which requires the tech company to hand over a huge chunk of chat GPT conversations.
00:45The AI organization has argued that this directly invades the privacy of its users
00:49and that 99.99% of the chats in question don't have any connections to the copyright claims
00:56made by the concerned media outlets.
00:58To be clear, anyone in the world who has used chat GPT in the past three years
01:02must now face the possibility that their personal conversations will be handed over to the Times
01:08to sift through at will in a speculative phishing expedition, OpenAI noted in a recent court filing,
01:15as per Reuters.
01:17Meanwhile, Dane Stuckey, the Chief Information Security Officer at OpenAI,
01:20shared a similar message on November 12th, stating that following the court order would force us to turn
01:26over tens of millions of highly personal conversations from people who have no connection to the Times' baseless lawsuit.
01:34The lawsuit, filed by the New York Times and others, alleges that OpenAI leveraged their copyrighted content
01:39and articles to train chat GPT, with the intention of enhancing the AI model's efficiency when responding to user prompts.
01:48A New York Times spokesperson has since rebutted OpenAI's concerns by saying,
01:52no chat GPT users' privacy is at risk.
01:55The court ordered OpenAI to provide a sample of chats anonymized by OpenAI itself under a legal protective order.
02:03Additionally, New York Judge Ona Wang has stated that exposure of OpenAI users' data should not be of concern.
02:09This is because the company's exhaustive de-identification and other safeguards should protect their privacy.
02:15As things stand, OpenAI has until Friday to submit the required transcripts.
