File this under "least surprising news ever". Coming up next:

- Meta fined by EU regulators for scraping FB/Instagram/Whatsapp user data to train AI models

- Google announces deprecation of major enterprise cloud tool less than 2 years after launch

Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

Can't stand NYT ever since they subpoenaed for millions of chat logs from OpenAI, trashing user privacy for their own goals on a massive scale.

What user privacy? There would be no chat logs to subpoena if users had privacy.

The NYT doesn't get to see the logs. They will only be seen by the attorneys handling the lawsuit and possibly expert witnesses they hire, who all are under strong NDAs.

What were their "own goals", exactly? Why did you ever assume your chat logs were private on OpenAI?

So you're okay with a data hoarding company building AGI having your data but not some journalists having <1% of it?
