Whew, good thing they’ve got tons of money. Otherwise that would be illegal.
“accidentally”
They might claim their AI deleted it by mistake. Always blame the AI, it’s the new “my dog ate my homework”.
I wish they “accidentally” deleted their prod credentials and lost access to their unethical garbage too
Oooppps, I did it again
Aren’t there supposed to be some suspicious quotes on there somewhere?
Oooo…so did the AI, knowing that the information was damaging, decide to destroy the information to protect the host?
Hmmm… so the article says that OpenAI provided 2 VMs for the plaintiffs to use. That would mean the machines were created and the data copied over. So even though the data was “accidentally” deleted and then the restore corrupted on the VM, it should be pretty simple to rebuild and recopy the data that was lost.
Having been involved in more IT-based cases than I’d like to admit, one of the very first orders that would have been sent would have been a “notice to preserve evidence”. That order should have triggered OpenAI to preserve all data that exists within their systems related to the training models. If they deleted that data, they would be in violation of the order, which should result in sanctions and an instruction to the jury to consider the actions.
Long story short, either OpenAI has the data and can recreate it for the plaintiffs, or they are in direct violation of a court order. The article doesn’t seem to address either of those points though.
