AI Chatbots are facing issues of copyright with poets, artists, etc after mimicking their work in searches. Bloomberg in its report says that AI Chatbots like ChatGPT in its quest to become the most disruptive technological force since the internet’s creation, these generative artificial intelligence systems have devoured millions of songs, beat poetry, draft contracts, movie scripts, photo essays, and novels from the 19th century, among other materials.

AI Chatbots Land in Trouble

Bloomberg explains that ChatGPT and other AI chatbots produce texts, graphics, and audio that can compete with those of a gifted human. But this is done by consuming previously produced information, looking for patterns in it, and then using those patterns to create new content.

In its quest to become the most disruptive technological force since the internet’s creation, these generative artificial intelligence systems have devoured millions of songs, beat poetry, draft contracts, movie scripts, photo essays, and novels from the 19th century, among other materials.

It appears that there is a cost associated with this extensive exploration of human history. A portion of the earnings is being demanded by news organizations, writers, music publishers, and other parties whose copyrighted works were used to train the chatbots’ huge language models.

AI Chatbot’s Previous Troubles

The Bloomberg report comes at a time when previously Microsoft and OpenAI have already been the target of a copyright infringement lawsuit from The New York Times. The NYT alleges in the lawsuit that its written works have been unfairly utilized by the companies behind ChatGPT and other well-known AI systems.

The Federal District Court in Manhattan received the complaint, which argues that automated chatbots that were trained on millions of articles published by The Times are now in direct competition with the news outlet as reliable information sources.

Thus far, the OpenAI and New York Times case has illuminated a significant area. Is artificial intelligence a trustworthy information source? A news organization’s primary responsibility is to ensure that the news is sourced from trustworthy sources. But are AI tools and bots obtaining information from reliable sources if they are increasingly attempting to mimic journalistic organizations?

The case also raised the issue of using as opposed to copying data. The Times is only one of many copyright holders suing tech companies for allegedly utilizing their works for AI training. Other copyright holders include groups of writers, graphic artists, and music publishers. Tech behemoths, meanwhile, contend that the cases jeopardize the sector’s future multitrillion-dollar growth.
