The lawsuits filed include news agency
In their lawsuit filed in Ontario Superior Court, the news organizations are seeking punitive damages from OpenAI, disgorgement of profits gained from the unlawful use of their articles, and an injunction banning the use of any future articles from the site.
The damages could amount to up to 20,000 Canadian dollars (approximately 2.14 million yen) per article, and the total amount could reach billions of dollars (several hundred billion yen).
The plaintiffs allege that OpenAI scraped articles from news sites to obtain the large amounts of text data needed to develop its GPT models.
Although this is the first such lawsuit to be filed in Canada, OpenAI has already been sued for copyright infringement by major American daily newspapers such as The New York Times.
