The Trump administration filed a statement of interest in the copyright lawsuit between The New York Times and OpenAI. ^[1] Kevin Pang, a food writer and recipe developer for The New York Times, proposed a variation of the Roman classic Amatriciana that substitutes traditional guanciale with Spanish chorizo. ^[2] The New York Times filed a landmark lawsuit in December 2023 alleging that OpenAI unlawfully trained its AI systems on the newspaper's articles. ^[3] The New York Times lawsuit seeks to recoup billions of dollars in damages from both OpenAI and Microsoft. ^[4] The Trump administration argued in favor of OpenAI, stating that training AI models on copyrighted text constitutes fair use. ^[5] Pang developed the 'Chorizo Amatriciana' recipe after his family fell in love with the dish during a trip to Rome but found it difficult to locate guanciale in the United States. ^[6] Pang explicitly stated that this dish is not authentic to the Lacio tradition and should not be presented as an alternative to the original recipe by purists. ^[7] The proposed recipe uses dry Spanish chorizo, which is distinct from Mexican chorizo, to provide a smoky, spicy, and paprika-infused flavor profile. ^[8]
