AI Copyright Battle! German Copyright Organization Suing OpenAI: ChatGPT Used Song Lyrics Without Authorization
On November 13, the German music copyright organization GEMA filed a lawsuit against OpenAI in the Munich regional court, becoming the first copyright collective management organization in the world to take legal action against an AI provider. GEMA accuses OpenAI's ChatGPT of reproducing copyrighted song lyrics without obtaining the necessary licenses or paying creator fees. This lawsuit targets not only OpenAI LLC based in the U.S. but also OpenAI Ireland, which operates in Europe.
