OpenAI and Microsoft were sued on Tuesday over claims that they misused the work of nonfiction authors to train the artificial intelligence models that underlie services like OpenAI's chatbot ChatGPT.
OpenAI copied tens of thousands of nonfiction books without permission to teach its large language models to respond to human text prompts, said author and Hollywood Reporter editor Julian Sancton, who is leading the proposed class action filed in Manhattan federal court.
Martin and Jonathan Franzen, against OpenAI and other tech companies over the alleged misuse of their work to train AI systems.
The company has invested billions of dollars in the artificial intelligence startup and integrated OpenAI’s systems into its products.
“While OpenAI and Microsoft refuse to pay nonfiction authors, their AI platform is worth a fortune,” Sancton’s attorney Justin Nelson said in a statement.
Sancton’s lawsuit said that OpenAI copied nonfiction books, including his “Madhouse at the End of the Earth: The Belgica’s Journey into the Dark Antarctic Night” to train its GPT large language models.
The complaint also said that Microsoft has been “deeply involved” in training and developing the models and is also liable for copyright infringement.
