> As outlined in the lawsuit, the Times alleges OpenAI and Microsoft’s large language models (LLMs), which power ChatGPT and Copilot, “can generate output that recites Times content verbatim
But I've tried really hard to get ChatGPT to output sentences verbatim from her book and just can't get it to. In fact, I can't even get it to answer simple questions about facts that are in her book but nowhere else -- it just says it doesn't know.
Similarly I haven't been able to reproduce any text in the NYT verbatim unless it's part of a common quote or passage the NYT is itself quoting. Or it's a specific popular quote from an article that went viral, but there aren't that many of those.
Has anyone here ever found a prompt that regurgitates a paragraph of a NYT article, or even a long sentence, that's just regular reporting in a regular article?
