Asian News International (ANI), one of India\u2019s largest news agencies, has filed a landmark lawsuit against OpenAI for copyright infringement.<\/b><\/p>\n
ANI has accused the company of unlawfully using its content to train AI models and generating false information attributed to the agency, as per a report by <\/span>TechCrunch<\/span><\/a>. The 287-page suit, submitted to the Delhi High Court, marks the first such legal challenge in India and highlights growing global scrutiny of AI companies\u2019 use of copyrighted material.<\/span><\/p>\n ANI\u2019s lawsuit alleges that OpenAI\u2019s practices violate copyright laws, citing instances where <\/span>ChatGPT<\/span><\/a> falsely attributed fabricated interviews, including one with opposition leader Rahul Gandhi, to the agency. ANI argues these inaccuracies damage its reputation and pose risks of spreading misinformation that could lead to public disorder. During an initial hearing, Justice Amit Bansal issued a summons to OpenAI but declined an injunction, noting the case\u2019s complexity. OpenAI confirmed <\/span>ChatGPT<\/span><\/a> no longer accesses ANI\u2019s website, but ANI insists public availability does not equate to permission for exploitation.<\/span><\/p>\n ANI Sues ChatGPT Maker OpenAI Over Copyright, Fake Rahul Gandhi Attribution https:\/\/t.co\/ICPUgH5mRN<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/SQUyGKc41t<\/a><\/p>\n — NDTV (@ndtv) November 19, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nCase Details and Allegations<\/b><\/h3>\n
