OUR TAKE： This can be recognized as a typical case of copyright infringement in AI training. The abstract detailed performances like language models are very difficult to identify as borrowed or plagiarised. Since generative AI has just emerged in recent years, the related copyright laws regulations, and judgment criteria are not mature enough. –Iris Deng, BTW reporter Nvidia has been sued by three authors, alleging it used their copyrighted books without permission to train its NeMo AI platform.
Evidence
Pending intelligence enrichment.
Analysis
Nvidia, the famous chipmaker known for its powerful graphics processing units (GPUs) used in artificial intelligence (AI) applications, has caught up in a copyright infringement lawsuit. Three authors, Brian Keene, Abdi Nazemian, and Stewart O’Nan, alleged that Nvidia utilized their copyrighted books without permission to train its NeMo AI platform, proposing in San Francisco federal court. The authors claim that their works, approximately 196,640 books were employed to train NeMo in simulating language models. The authors are seeking damages on behalf of individuals in the US whose copyrights are unconsciously invaded. It is said that these books contributed to the AI training over the past three years. Keene’s novel “Ghost Walk” from 2008, Nazemian’s novel “Like a Love Story” from 2019, and O’Nan’s novella “Last Night at the Lobster” from 2007 are mentioned in the case.
