From Morning Brew: "Critics and anyone online who is slightly tuned into the AI race have pointed out that OpenAI, which has built its whole company around questionably scraping everything on the internet, accusing someone of stealing is pretty rich."
OpenAI is looking into whether DeepSeek stole its tech
