Encyclopedia Britannica and Merriam-Webster have filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging that ChatGPT uses their copyrighted material without permission. The complaint states that ChatGPT often provides answers that are direct copies or paraphrases of Britannicas content, potentially drawing visitors away from their websites. This lawsuit is part of a series of legal actions against AI companies over the use of copyrighted material in training data. OpenAI has responded by asserting that their models rely on public data and adhere to fair use guidelines. The case against Perplexity is still ongoing, and Britannica has yet to comment on the latest filing. This legal battle underscores the growing tension between traditional reference books and emerging AI technology.
