I fully believe that OpenAI is essentially stealing the work of others by training their models on it without permission. However, giving a corporation infamous for promoting authoritarianism full access to millions of private conversations is not the answer.

OpenAI is right here. The NYT needs to prove their case another way.

The NYT is certainly open to criticism along many fronts, but I don't have the slightest idea what you mean in claiming it promotes authoritarianism.

Well, the sponsors of the 1619 Project really don’t have a leg to stand on when it comes to ethics.

I already said the NYT is certainly open to criticism. I fail to see any connection between the 1619 Project and authoritarianism.
