In the most high-profile and closely tracked lawsuit on AI use in India, ANI sued OpenAI in Delhi in November, accusing it of using the news agency's published content without permission to train ChatGPT.

OpenAI has told Delhi HC that the Indian courts do not have the jurisdiction to hear a copyright infringement case against the AI company.

OpenAI has told an Indian court that any order to remove training data powering its ChatGPT service would be inconsistent with its legal obligations in the United States, according to a recent filing seen by Reuters.

The company said it could not delete the news agency’s content from ChatGPT as this would violate its legal obligations in the United States.

In a Delhi court, OpenAI argues that removing ChatGPT training data breaches US laws amid ANI's lawsuit over unauthorised content use.

Reuters-backed ANI’s copyright lawsuit against OpenAI takes a global turn, raising complex legal challenges over AI training practices and cross-border compliance.

OpenAI, backed by Microsoft and creator of ChatGPT, challenges Delhi HC's jurisdiction in a copyright lawsuit by ANI. OpenAI argues it lacks an Indian presence and cannot delete ANI's data from training modules due to US legal obligations.

OpenAI has stated in a recent court filing that any demand to erase training data used for its ChatGPT service would conflict with its legal duties in the United States, according to Reuters. The firm was responding to a copyright infringement lawsuit filed by Indian news agency ANI.
