OpenAI and Microsoft knew they were creating a web 'doom loop', report claims

Original: OpenAI and Microsoft knew they were starting a 'doom loop' for the web

A report by The Verge argues that OpenAI and Microsoft were aware that training AI models on web content, including material from The New York Times, would set off a 'doom loop' for the internet, where AI-generated output floods and degrades the web that future models rely on. Discussion is centering on whether the companies knowingly accepted this damage, with comparisons drawn to Google's earlier role in reshaping the web.

Why now: Fresh reporting alleging OpenAI and Microsoft knowingly harmed the web has reignited debate over AI training practices and copyright.
