![Defendants acknowledge the predictable consequences of this design. Per Microsoft, "the promise of LLMs is largely in the same information work domains from which they get their content... They naturally compete with their content supply chain." SF1798. They substitute for the "labor of the people" who produced the original content on which they were trained, including, among other things, newspapers and books. SF1452, 1677. There is a "real risk" that GenAI could "significantly disrupt[] the employment of the very people who generated the data on which the foundation model was trained." SF1467. "LLMs are a product that destroys its supply chain." SF1461.
Defendants' products generate pink slime.
Another way that Defendants' accused products substitute for news is by enabling the generation of high volumes of "pink slime," which is unreliable low-quality content that is often either plagiarized or remixed from legitimate news sources. SF1683-1684. Defendants' accused products have made pink slime news content farms cheaper, easier to make, and harder to detect. SF1686. Using OpenAI's published API pricing, it would cost roughly $6,800 to generate one million news-style articles averaging 500 words each - and would require no human author, editor, or reporter to do so.

MR ROGERS’ NEIGHBOURHOOD
MR ROGERS:
Hi there
2
Today, I’d like to take you to visit some of my neighbours…
[He puts his coat on to leave his house]
3
At a wonderful local event,
[We see the cute toy-town diorama of his village famous from the TV show. The camera pulls out…]
4
The Data Center protest.
[The camera has pulled out further and now we see a huge DATA CENTER at the edge of town].
5
MR ROGERS [joining a crowd protesting outside the Data Center]:
The Data Center is an enormous, windowless, endlessly humming building outside of our town
6
…Which has tripled energy prices, drank all the water, and created four jobs.
7
[to camera, as if kindly explaining to the viewing children]:
Four jobs! Golly!
8
LADY PROTESTOR [probably NAOMI KLEIN, holding a sign]:
In a way, the Data Center is kind of a vivid metaphor for a future we feel locked out of!
9
MR ROGERS [to camera again]:
A metaphor.
10
That’s something that lets us clarify our feelings about something else.
11
LADY PROTESTOR:
How do you feel, Mr Rogers?
MR ROGERS:
I feel like bringing down the government!
12
MR ROGERS [now holding a sign and protesting]:
It’s good to have neighbors.
