Article said they they actually have a service that reproduces news articles without paywalls. People are deliberately choosing to get their news filtered through ChatGPT when everyone should know by now that these things are not to be trusted with any important information.

That's also happening, yes. But ChatGPT is also reproducing large chunks of training data verbatim.

This isn't just about using ChatGPT to summarize articles or bypass paywalls. But also about copyright infringement (and no, reproducing large chunks of training data verbatim is not fair use).
