French publishers and authors sue Meta over copyright works used in AI training
French publishers and authors are taking Meta to court, accusing the social media company of using their works without permission to train its artificial intelligence model
"Montagne accused Meta of “noncompliance with copyright and parasitism.”
Another group, the National Union of Authors and Composers, which represents 700 writers, playwrights and composers, said the lawsuit was necessary to protect members from “AI which plunders their works and cultural heritage to train itself."
The union is also worried about AI that “produces 'fake books' which compete with real books,” the union's president, Francois Peyrony, said."
What is a copyright worth, if billionaires use copyrighted material to
generate derivations of it, without paying for the creator's permission?
