Delhi High Court seeks OpenAI’s reply on ANI plea to stop ChatGPT from using its content | Company Business News
The Delhi High Court has asked OpenAI to reply to ANI's appeal against a July order that refused to stop ChatGPT from using its news content. ANI argued OpenAI had promised not to scrape its website. The next hearing is in December. This matters to Indian businesses whose content may be used by AI tools.
Key Statutory Highlights
- The Delhi High Court issued a notice to OpenAI on ANI's appeal against a 24 July single-judge order that denied interim relief in its copyright case.
- The single judge said an injunction would harm public interest and AI development, and that ANI did not show any market harm or loss of subscriptions.
- ANI's counsel told the court that OpenAI had earlier undertaken not to download or scrape content from ANI's website.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you publish original content, keep dated records of your own material and watch how AI tools use it. Before sending any legal notice, speak to a lawyer, since courts have not yet settled how Indian copyright law applies to AI training.
