Legal and Industry Challenges in AI Training Data and Copyright Enforcement
Recent legal and industry developments highlight challenges in AI training data and copyright law. The Delhi High Court ruled that Indian courts have jurisdiction over OpenAI despite data storage abroad, but found AI training on copyrighted news articles exempt from infringement claims due to lack of substantial similarity.
