Microsoft-backed OpenAI seeks to block Indian media groups from copyright lawsuit

Microsoft-backed OpenAI sought to block on Tuesday India’s biggest media organisations, including those of billionaires Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani, from joining a copyright lawsuit that is set to shape the legal framework for AI in India.

Courts globally are hearing cases from authors, news organisations and musicians who accuse technology firms of using their copyrighted work to train artificial intelligence services without permission or license. India is OpenAI’s second-largest market by number of users, after the United States.
