OpenAI faces lawsuit in India! ‘Why buy books?’ publishers fear ChatGPT’s free summaries undermine sales
Live MintA coalition of Indian book publishers and their international partners has initiated a copyright infringement lawsuit against OpenAI in the Delhi High Court. Pranav Gupta, the federation’s general secretary, stated that the case centres on ChatGPT’s use of copyrighted book content to generate summaries, potentially impacting sales and creativity within the publishing industry. Broad legal implications The Delhi High Court is already hearing a related lawsuit filed by Indian news agency ANI against OpenAI, making this the country’s most prominent legal challenge in the realm of generative AI and copyright. “The judgments will determine how we strike a balance between protecting intellectual property and fostering innovation in AI.” In response to the ANI lawsuit, OpenAI argued that any directive to delete training data would breach its legal obligations in the United States. The road ahead The federation claims to have “credible evidence” suggesting OpenAI utilised its members’ works for training ChatGPT.
