An Al Jazeera opinion piece argues that OpenAI has no standing to complain about spying or theft, given that the company built its products and enormous valuation on training data taken from other people's work without permission. Critics online are echoing the argument, accusing OpenAI of hypocrisy for decrying unfair behaviour while benefiting from it.

Why now: Fresh criticism of OpenAI's perceived hypocrisy is circulating as debate over AI training data and surveillance continues.
