ANI Sues OpenAI Over Alleged Copyright Infringement in India

The Delhi High Court has summoned OpenAI following ANI's claims of unauthorized use of its content for AI training.

ANI accuses OpenAI of using its content without permission to train ChatGPT, marking the first such lawsuit by an Indian media outlet against the AI firm.
The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to OpenAI, requiring a detailed response to ANI's allegations by January 28.
ANI claims OpenAI's chatbot produces its news content verbatim and attributes false stories to the agency, potentially harming its reputation.
OpenAI argues that it uses publicly available data under fair use principles and has existing licensing agreements with other news organizations.
The case highlights ongoing global legal challenges faced by AI companies regarding the use of copyrighted materials for training models.
