American comedian, actress and writer
Hachette, Cengage, Elsevier and author Scott Turow have filed a federal lawsuit in New York accusing Google of copying millions of copyrighted books — from Google Books, Play and web scrapes — and using them without permission to train its Gemini AI, seeking damages and an injunction while alleging Google hid identifying copyright data.
The Justice Department has filed a historic statement of interest in a New York copyright case, arguing that training AI on copyrighted material is transformative and benefits national security, while publishers warn of threats to journalism and creators.
