Introduction
Anytime you type a query into Chat GPT or prompt any AI to write something, you are interacting with a model that has been trained on a massive corpus of text-books, articles, web pages, etc. The vast majority of that text belongs to somebody else. Authors, journalists, publishers, artists all possess copyrights over their work. In nearly every instance, they never asked permission before their work was fed to an AI model.
This has now sparked a flurry of lawsuits around the world, each raising essentially the same question: does the training of an AI system on copyrighted data represent a copyright violation? Courts in the U.S. Have begun to answer this question, with India not far behind.
