近日，美国作家协会和包括乔治·R.R.马丁、乔纳森·弗兰岑、约翰·格里森姆、朱迪·皮考特等 17 名知名作家在纽约南区提起诉讼，起诉 OpenAI 侵犯版权。根据诉状，OpenAI“未经许可或考虑大量复制原告的作品”，并将受版权保护的材料输入到大语言模型中。
据悉，OpenAI 的大语言模型 ChatGPT 因其能够生成高质量、流畅的文本而受到广泛关注。然而，这些文本的生成过程中是否涉及版权问题，一直是争议的焦点。
原告方认为，OpenAI 在训练其大语言模型时，未经许可使用了他们的作品。这种行为不仅侵犯了他们的版权，还损害了他们的声誉和利益。他们希望法院能够禁止 OpenAI 继续使用他们的作品，并要求 OpenAI 赔偿损失。
OpenAI 方面尚未对此次诉讼做出回应。然而，此前 OpenAI 曾表示，他们在训练大语言模型时，已经采取了一系列措施来避免侵犯版权，包括使用开源数据、过滤掉受版权保护的材料等。
此次诉讼的焦点在于，OpenAI 在训练大语言模型时，是否确实侵犯了知名作家的版权。如果法院裁定 OpenAI 侵权，那么这将对大语言模型的未来发展产生深远影响。

Title: Prominent Authors Sue OpenAI for Copyright Infringement
Keywords: Copyright, OpenAI, Prominent Authors
News Content:
Recently, the Authors Guild and 17 prominent authors including George R.R. Martin, Jonathan Franzen, John Grisham, and Jodi Picoult filed a lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against OpenAI for copyright infringement. According to the complaint, OpenAI “engaged in widespread copying of the Plaintiffs’ works without permission or consideration” and inputted copyrighted materials into its large language model.
OpenAI’s large language model ChatGPT has gained widespread attention for its ability to generate high-quality, fluent text. However, the issue of whether copyright issues are involved in the generation process has been a subject of controversy.
The plaintiffs argue that OpenAI used their works without permission in training its large language model. This behavior not only infringes on their copyright, but also damages their reputation and interests. They hope that the court will prohibit OpenAI from continuing to use their works and require OpenAI to compensate for the losses.
OpenAI has not yet responded to this lawsuit. However, in the past, OpenAI has stated that it has taken a series of measures to avoid copyright infringement in training large language models, including using open source data and filtering out copyrighted materials.
The focus of this lawsuit is whether OpenAI actually infringed on the copyrights of prominent authors in training its large language model. If the court rules that OpenAI has infringed, it will have a profound impact on the future development of large language models.
