Judge denies creating “mass surveillance program” harming all ChatGPT users

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-04 21:18:11

After a court ordered OpenAI to "indefinitely" retain all ChatGPT logs, including deleted chats, of millions of users, two panicked users tried and failed to intervene. The order sought to preserve potential evidence in a copyright infringement lawsuit raised by news organizations. In May, Judge Ona Wang, who drafted the order, rejected the first user's request on behalf of his company simply because the company should have hired a lawyer to draft the filing.

Judge Says Requiring ChatGPT to Save Chat Logs Is Not a ‘Mass Surveillance Program’

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-09-05 05:20:25

OpenAI and some of its users have objected to a court order that requires the company to indefinitely maintain all of ChatGPT’s chat logs as part of an ongoing copyright lawsuit, claiming that holding onto such records amounts to a “nationwide mass surveillance program.” The court was not moved. Judge Ona Wang, who initially issued the order to retain all data from the popular chatbot, rejected multiple requests to overturn the decision—though OpenAI has vowed to continue to fight the order, acc

Elon Musk’s Lawyers Claim He ‘Does Not Use a Computer’

wired.com Caroline Haskins 2025-09-05 21:24:45

Elon Musk’s lawyers claimed that he “does not use a computer” in a Sunday court filing related to his lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI. However, Musk has posted pictures or referred to his laptop on X several times in recent months, and public evidence suggests that he owns and appears to use at least one computer. Musk and his artificial intelligence startup xAI sued OpenAI in February 2024, alleging the company committed breach of contract by abandoning its founding agreement to develop

Dell 16 Plus 2-in-1 review: Technically proficient but lacking soul

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-06 05:30:03

In previous years, the Dell 16 Plus 2-in-1 probably would have been called an Inspiron. However, after the company revamped its naming scheme earlier this year, all of its consumer PCs now share its name, with a few extra identifiers that call out size, design and status (aka how fancy it is). While I still think Dell’s choice to ditch the iconic XPS tag is a mistake, streamlining its portfolio makes a lot of sense, especially for people simply looking to buy a new laptop.

Two and a half years after it was unleashed upon the world, ChatGPT is both the poster child for AI’s utopian promise and a walking, talking cautionary tale. It can plan your vacation, find a recipe, and even act as a low-budget therapist. It’s also subjected to a daily firehose of humanity’s worst impulses: insults, gotchas, and commands to do harm. Ever wondered what it really thinks when you do that? I recently asked ChatGPT to spill the tea on the worst things users say to it. But to get t
