2 prediction markets price this story:

• New York Times wins — the market puts it at 50%, with $279 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2028. The market resolves to Yes if the Southern District of New York finds OpenAI liable for copyright infringement or any other counts alleged by the New York Times. It resolves to No if that specific court does not issue such a finding. Readers often mistake the linked lawsuit against the New York Times for the actual resolution criteria, but the outcome depends entirely on the legal judgment against OpenAI.
• Information Technology — the market puts it at 86%, closing 11 Jan 2028. The market resolves to Yes if OpenAI is officially classified in the Information Technology sector. It resolves to No if that classification does not happen. Readers often mistake this for a prediction about OpenAI's actions rather than its corporate sector assignment.
