Delhi High Court hands OpenAI a win by rejecting major Indian news agency's copyright injunction
The Delhi High Court rejected ANI's injunction against OpenAI, ruling that AI training constitutes private use. This marks a significant legal precedent for copyright cases involving large language models.
- Delhi High Court denied ANI's injunction against OpenAI.
- The court classified AI training as private use for the first time.
- ANI's evidence was weakened by citing post-training articles.
- The main copyright trial remains ongoing.
The Delhi High Court has denied a preliminary injunction sought by the Asian News International (ANI) against OpenAI. The court found that ANI failed to prove its copyrighted material was used to train ChatGPT, noting that some cited articles were published after the model's training cutoff date.
Crucially, the court classified the process of training artificial intelligence models as private use. This distinction is vital because it suggests that the ingestion of data for learning purposes may not infringe on copyright in the same way as public distribution does.
While this is a major victory for OpenAI in the Indian jurisdiction, the legal battle is not over. The main lawsuit regarding copyright infringement is still pending, and this ruling only addresses the immediate request to halt OpenAI's operations.
