I am not an NYT hater. I very much appreciate much of what they do, even when I disagree.
But, I think today's edition of The Daily, titled "AI's Original Sin" was very problematic. Over 50% of the way into the show, their coverage was very biased in favor of arguments that they are suing OpenAI for - without disclosing or mentioning their lawsuit.
In the second half of the show, the mentioned their lawsuit and brought a bit of balance to the story, but not much.
