News orgs win fight to access 20M ChatGPT logs. Now they want more.
OpenAI’s loss in privacy fight could lead to sharing even more deleted chats.

TL;DR
- OpenAI's attempt to prevent sharing 20 million ChatGPT logs in a copyright infringement lawsuit was denied by a US District Judge.
- The judge ruled that the de-identified logs are necessary for news organizations to build their case, despite OpenAI's privacy concerns.
- News plaintiffs are seeking sanctions against OpenAI, alleging the company destroyed relevant data and used delay tactics.
- There are demands for OpenAI to retrieve and share millions of deleted ChatGPT chats, which users likely believed were private.
- Microsoft is also involved, having agreed to share Copilot logs but with an unspecified timeline.
