OpenAI accidentally deleted potential evidence in NY Times copyright lawsuit (updated) | TechCrunch
Briefly

OpenAI engineers accidentally deleted copyright search data related to a lawsuit filed by The New York Times and Daily News, complicating their case.
The data deletion incident means that the publishers' legal team and experts have to recreate extensive work, losing significant person-hours and processing time.
Counsel for the publishers stated they have spent over 150 hours searching OpenAI's training data, highlighting the resource investment in this legal battle.
While no intentional wrongdoing is suspected, the plaintiffs emphasize that OpenAI is uniquely positioned to locate any infringing content within its own datasets.
