Microsoft: Copilot Not Using NYT Articles

Microsoft has stated that its Copilot program rarely reproduces articles from The New York Times, as part of its defense against copyright claims from publishers including NYT and book authors. This information was revealed in legal filings related to the ongoing lawsuit.

The company emphasizes that Copilot does not even reproduce full sentences from news articles and books, raising questions about the validity of the claims made by publishers.

This news is significant for Uzbekistan and CIS countries, as the rise of technology and artificial intelligence poses challenges to copyright protections and highlights the need for local authors and publishers to safeguard their rights.

Microsoft's statement also sparks a broader discussion about the impact of AI technologies on copyright, potentially leading to new forms of collaboration between publishers and tech companies in the future.
