From Nasdaq:

Two non-fiction book authors accuse Microsoft and OpenAI of stealing copyrighted works for training large language models, seeking damages of up to $150,000 for each copyrighted work infringed.

The authors’ complaint represents tens of thousands of authors or legal beneficiary owners of copyrights, and claims that the tech giants devalue the work of writers.

The New York Times filed a similar copyright infringement case against Microsoft and OpenAI for using newspaper material to train large language models, seeking billions of dollars in damages.

OpenAI has stated that it respects the rights of content creators and owners, and is committed to working with them to ensure they benefit from AI technology and new revenue models, hoping to find a mutually beneficial way to work together.

Many prominent American fiction authors, including George R.R. Martin, Jonathan Franzen, and Michael Connelly, previously sued the ChatGPT creator for similar copyright infringement allegations.
