OpenAI hit with massive lawsuit: Canada’s media giants demand billions

Canada’s leading news organisations have filed a landmark lawsuit against OpenAI, accusing the tech giant of exploiting their content without permission to train its popular AI model, ChatGPT.

The lawsuit, filed on Friday in Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice, demands punitive damages, a share of the profits OpenAI has derived from using their news articles, and an injunction to stop the San Francisco-based company from using their content in the future, reported The Guardian.
