The court allowed a claim for unfair competition to proceed, suggesting that OpenAI's use of copyrighted works to train its AI model for profit may constitute an unfair business practice. The ruling questions whether AI firms are required to license the material they use and could impact the future of AI technology.
Sarah Silverman's lawsuit against OpenAI will proceed with some claims dismissed, including negligence, unjust enrichment, DMCA violations, and accusations of vicarious infringement.

The ruling builds upon findings from another lawsuit against AI art generators, questioning whether artists can substantiate copyright infringement in the absence of identical material created by the AI tools. The decision could have implications for creators seeking compensation for the use of their material to train AI models.

This follows previous cases brought by programmers and artists against AI systems.
