I’m not a legal expert, but I expect that this sort of lawsuit, involving coordination between multiple states’ attorneys general and the department of justice, would take months of planning and would have to have started before public-facing products like ChatGPT were even released.
That actually goes a long way towards answering the question. This means that in order for it to be connected, the lawsuit would have been on the backburner and the OpenAI-MSFT partnership somehow was either the straw that broke the camel’s back, or it mostly-by-itself triggered a lawsuit that was held in reserve against google. Highly relevant info either way, thank you.
