The famous writers allege OpenAI has committed “systemic theft on a mass scale” of creative works.
Best-selling authors George R.R. Martin, Jodi Picoult and John Grisham are part of a group that slapped OpenAI with a lawsuit, alleging the company built its popular ChatGPT tool in part by using their books without permission.
“In short, the success and profitability of OpenAI are predicated on mass copyright infringement without a word of permission from or a nickel of compensation to copyright owners, including plaintiffs here,” the complaint added. “OpenAI knows it; its investors know it; and plaintiffs know it.
In the case of Martin’s works, the suit alleges that ChatGPT was able to generate accurate summaries of several of his books, including “A Game of Thrones,” “A Clash of Kings” and “A Storm of Swords,” the first three books in his popular “A Song of Ice and Fire” fantasy series that was later adapted into the hit HBO show.
