This is BS. It’s like saying “We robbed a jewelry store and sold the jewelry. Now the police are poking around to see if anyone is wearing the jewelry we stole. Blasphemy! But don’t worry we will protect your privacy!”

Of course the Times wants more evidence that the content OpenAI allegedly stole is ending in things OpenAI is selling.

It's more like a torrent tracker telling users that a newspaper wants to know what people are torrenting because they "claim" people are torrenting the newspaper, but investigating this would be an invasion of privacy of the users of the torrent tracker.

This isn't even a hyperbole. It's literally the same thing.

No, it's not. OpenAI is a commercial enterprise selling the stolen data.
