Media Giants Sue AI Startup Cohere for Copyright Infringement

Condé Nast and other media companies are suing AI startup Cohere for allegedly using their news articles to train its large language model without permission. The lawsuit claims Cohere engaged in systematic copyright and trademark infringement, not only using articles without authorization but also fabricating articles and falsely attributing them to the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking substantial damages, while Cohere calls the lawsuit frivolous and maintains it employs responsible training practices.
