Recently, it was reported that the Trump administration filed a 20-page brief in support of OpenAI's copyright case against The New York Times, arguing that using copyrighted materials to train large language models (LLMs) without authorization is justified. The brief contends that restricting such training would hinder innovation within the U.S. AI industry and jeopardize its global leadership, emphasizing that the fair use doctrine should permit AI companies to utilize copyrighted works for model training. Although not a formal ruling, the brief may influence subsequent judicial decisions.
