Microsoft staff were asked whether the use of artificial intelligence to scrape human-created material represented the “largest theft of labor in human history,” according to Decrypt. The question emerged alongside internal memos warning of a potential “doom loop” that could undermine the quality of the AI models Microsoft was developing with OpenAI. The reported concerns focus on the relationship between AI systems and the human-generated work used to build or train them. The material does not provide details on any policy changes, financial impact, or response from Microsoft or OpenAI. Microsoft (MSFT) is the publicly traded company connected to the report; the development has no stated direct link to the crypto assets listed on this page.
