OpenAI Fights Court Order Requiring It to Store Deleted ChatGPT Conversations Indefinitely

  • In 2023, The New York Times filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, accusing them of using its articles without permission to train ChatGPT and related language models.
  • Following ongoing allegations and a May request by the Times to preserve chat logs as evidence of copyright violations, a US judge ordered OpenAI last month to retain all ChatGPT data indefinitely.
  • The order forces OpenAI to keep all user conversations, including deleted chats from Free, Plus, and Pro plans, under strict legal controls and secure storage accessible only to a dedicated legal team.

  • OpenAI is appealing the indefinite data retention order, arguing it violates user privacy rights and EU privacy standards, and pledges to continue contesting the court mandate.
