OpenAI scores key legal victory as judge throws out copyright case brought by news websites
Briefly

Judge Colleen McMahon dismissed the lawsuit brought by Raw Story and AlterNet against OpenAI, citing a lack of concrete harm from AI's use of their content.
The ruling emphasized that OpenAI's ChatGPT creates synthesized responses and does not directly copy articles, supporting the fair use defense for AI companies.
The judge noted that factual information doesn’t hold copyright, reducing the risk of infringement when AI generates text based on training.
While the case is dismissed, Judge McMahon hinted the plaintiffs might file an amended complaint, though she doubted they'd demonstrate a valid injury.
