Wikimedia Court Brief: AI Training May Be Fair Use, but Copied Answers Need a License

Neutral Wikimedia Foundation filed a legal brief in publishers' copyright lawsuits against OpenAI and Microsoft, including The New York Times. It argues copying websites should not count as infringement, and that training AI chatbots without a license should count as fair use, a legal exception, when they offer something new. Showing copied material in chatbot answers should require a license.
