OpenAI Challenges New York Times Lawsuit Over User Data Retention

In response to a lawsuit filed by The New York Times, OpenAI has challenged the demand for indefinite user data retention related to ChatGPT interactions. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman highlighted that the lawsuit deviates significantly from the company’s commitment to user privacy. He emphasized OpenAI’s intention to appeal the case and firmly oppose any demands that compromise user privacy. The lawsuit targets non-enterprise ChatGPT users, as well as those who have not signed a ‘zero data retention’ agreement with the platform.
