OpenAI appeals data preservation order in NYT copyright case
Last month, a court said OpenAI had to preserve and segregate all output log data after the Times asked for the data to be preserved.
"We will fight any demand that compromises our users' privacy; this is a core principle," OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said in a post on X on Thursday.
"We think this (The Times demand) was an inappropriate request that sets a bad precedent."
U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein was asked to vacate the May data preservation order on June 3, a court filing showed.
The New York Times did not immediately respond to a request for comment outside regular business hours.
The newspaper sued OpenAI and Microsoft in 2023, accusing them of using millions of its articles without permission to train the large language model behind its popular chatbot.
Stein said in an April court opinion that the Times had made a case that OpenAI and Microsoft were responsible for inducing users to infringe its copyrights.
The opinion explained an earlier order that rejected parts of an OpenAI and Microsoft motion to dismiss, saying that the Times' "numerous" and "widely publicized" examples of ChatGPT producing material from its articles justified allowing the claims to continue.

Researchers develop new ways for AI models to work together
Researchers have developed a set of algorithms that allow different artificial intelligence (AI) models to 'think' and work together as one. The development, by researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science (WIS) makes it possible to combine the strengths of different AI systems, speeding up performance and reducing costs, Xinhua news agency reported. The new method significantly improves the speed of large language models, or LLMs, which power tools like ChatGPT and Gemini. On average, it increases performance by 1.5 times, and in some cases by as much as 2.8 times, the team said, adding that it could make AI more suitable for smartphones, drones, and autonomous vehicles. In those settings, faster response times can be critical to safety and accuracy. For example, in a self-driving car, a faster AI model can mean the difference between a safe decision and a dangerous error. Until now, AI models developed by different companies could not easily communicate or collaborate because each uses a different internal 'language,' made up of unique tokens. The researchers compared this to people from different countries trying to talk without a shared vocabulary. To overcome this, the team developed two algorithms. One allows a model to translate its output into a shared format that other models can understand. The other encourages collaboration using tokens that have the same meaning across different systems, like common words in human languages. Though initially concerned that meaning might be lost in translation, the researchers found that their system worked efficiently. The new tools are already available through open-source platforms and are helping developers worldwide create faster and more collaborative AI applications. The finding was presented at the International Conference on Machine Learning being held in Vancouver, Canada.

AI will be ready to manage your money in 5 years: Andrew Lo
A year ago, Andrew Lo asked ChatGPT for its opinion on Moderna, a biotech stock that soared during the pandemic era. The advice: sell. He didn't. The stock plunged. ADVERTISEMENT Now Lo, a finance professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and leading AI expert, believes the same kind of technology that nailed the stock call could soon do far more. Not just dispense advice, but manage money, balance risk, tailor strategies-and meet one of finance's highest duties: acting in a client's best interest. Within five years, he predicts, large language models will have the technical capability to make real investment decisions on behalf of clients. Lo, 65, has long bridged the worlds of finance and technology. He co-founded QLS Advisors, a firm that applies machine learning to health care and asset management, and helped pioneer quantitative investing when it was still viewed as fringe. He believes that generative AI, despite its flaws, is fast approaching the capacity to parse complex market dynamics, weigh long-term risks, and earn the kind of trust typically reserved for human advisers. "This could be in the form of the so-called agent AI where we have agents that are working on our behalf and making decisions on our behalf in an automated fashion," Lo said in an interview. "I believe that within the next five years we're going to see a revolution in how humans interact with AI." The idea still sounds radical on Wall Street, where ChatGPT-style tools are mostly confined to junior-level work such as data collection and analysis. Yet Lo's vision goes beyond that: under the right regulatory guardrails, AI could evolve from a hard-working but rigid researcher to meet one of finance's highest bars: the fiduciary standard.
