Three more media outlets—The Intercept, Alternet and Raw Story—have joined The New York Times and other companies in suing OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, for copyright infringement.
Two separate lawsuits, filed in New York federal court, claim that used copyrighted works without proper credit or citation to train ChatGPT. They ask OpenAI to eliminate the copyrighted articles from its training data, as well as seek at least $2,500 per violation.
“It is time that news organizations fight back against Big Tech’s continued attempts to monetize other people’s work,” John Byrne, the chief executive and founder of Raw Story, which owns Alternet, said in a statement. “Big Tech has decimated journalism. It’s time that publishers take a stand.”
The Intercept filed an additional lawsuit against Microsoft, an OpenAI backer, which allegedly also used copyrighted information in training its chatbot, Bing.
