OpenAI faked inability to search training data, hid billions of logs, NYT says

A New York Times report alleges OpenAI misrepresented its ability to search its training data. The report says the company claimed it could not perform such searches. According to the article, OpenAI also concealed billions of log records. The hidden logs are said to relate to the company's internal data handling. The allegations raise questions about transparency in AI development. Critics argue that undisclosed logs could affect accountability for model outputs. OpenAI has not publicly responded to the specific claims in the NYT story. The story adds to ongoing scrutiny of large‑scale AI firms and their data practices.
