OpenAI is facing multiple legal challenges and making significant investments in AI research. A federal court has rejected OpenAI's effort to dismiss a lawsuit by The Intercept, which claims that OpenAI violated the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) by removing story titles and bylines. Additionally, OpenAI has been accused by the New York Times of deleting evidence in a copyright lawsuit, which OpenAI referred to as a 'self-inflicted wound'. In parallel, OpenAI has invested $1 million in research at Duke University to develop algorithms that predict human moral judgments in real-world conflicts, aiming to address ethical dilemmas in fields like medicine and law.
