As a seasoned crypto investor and technology enthusiast with a keen interest in intellectual property rights, I find myself deeply intrigued by this legal battle between ANI and OpenAI. Having closely followed the evolution of AI and its potential implications on various industries, I can’t help but feel a sense of deja vu when I see yet another content creator standing up against an AI giant.
In simpler terms, the main Indian news service, Asian News International (ANI), has taken legal action against OpenAI, claiming they have been using ANI’s copyright-protected news material without permission, to educate large language models (LLMs) and produce answers on their chatbot, ChatGPT.
In a groundbreaking move, Unum Law has initiated a lawsuit against an AI company, marking the initial time an Indian news publisher has taken legal action over alleged intellectual property infringements. This case is set to be adjudicated by Justice Amit Bansal within the Delhi High Court.
Key Allegations in the Lawsuit:
- ANI accuses OpenAI of using its proprietary content to train LLMs without permission, exploiting it for commercial gain.
- ChatGPT allegedly reproduces ANI’s content verbatim in response to user queries, violating copyright laws.
- ANI claims OpenAI’s chatbot has attributed fabricated statements and news to ANI, with the agency stating, “Such hallucinations pose a real threat to ANI’s reputation and have the potential to spread fake news that could cause public disorder.”
On National Press Day (November 16), the Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting, Ashwini Vaishnaw, highlighted concerns about potential risks to intellectual property, particularly for content creators, due to advancements in Artificial Intelligence.
He emphasized that AI models are consuming original content, highlighting the need for its protection. “This is more than just an economic concern; it is also a matter of ethics,” he remarked.
In line with a wider pattern, ANI’s legal action joins the ranks of other publishing entities taking on AI companies in copyright disputes. Renowned organizations such as The New York Times and others have initiated litigation against businesses like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Perplexity over potential copyright violations.
In India, similar issues arose when the family of the deceased singer SP Balasubrahmanyam issued a legal warning to movie producers for employing AI technology to mimic his voice without obtaining prior approval.
In India, this particular instance is likely to draw a lot of attention because its outcome may establish a notable pattern regarding how artificial intelligence handles copyrighted works.
