OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, is now dealing with a lawsuit from major news outlets in Canada. These companies, which include CBC, Postmedia, Toronto Star, and others, say OpenAI has used their news stories without permission, which is against the law.
The news organizations claim they spend a lot of money each year to produce high-quality journalism, including original news and investigative reports. They argue that taking their content without paying for it hurts the value of Canadian news and could harm the industry’s future.
The media groups are asking for money from OpenAI, including extra penalties, a share of the profits made from their articles, and a stop to any further unauthorized use of their content. They insist that their work matters to Canadians and is protected by copyright laws.
OpenAI has responded by saying they believe their use of external content is okay since it supports public interests. They also say they work with news publishers for proper display and provide options for them to opt-out if they choose.
However, the news companies disagree and want OpenAI to be held responsible for what they call illegal use of their content.
