Google’s AI Copyright Dispute: Artists Accuse Tech Giant of Sidestepping Core Issues

Artists and authors embroiled in a legal battle against Google over its use of copyrighted material to train artificial intelligence software have raised concerns about the tech giant’s legal strategy. They argue that Google is focusing on “marginal issues” rather than addressing the central claims relating to copyright infringement. This approach, the plaintiffs assert, distinguishes Google from other technology companies facing similar litigation over AI-related copyright infringements. The full context of these arguments is detailed in a recent report by Law360.
