"More than 8,000 authors have signed a letter asking the leaders of companies including Microsoft, Meta Platforms and Alphabet to not use their work to train artificial-intelligence systems without permission or compensation.
The letter, signed by writers including James Patterson, Margaret Atwood and Jonathan Franzen, says the AI systems "mimic and regurgitate our language, stories, style, and ideas."
The letter was published by the Author's Guild, a professional organization.
"Millions of copyrighted books, articles, essays, and poetry provide the 'food' for AI systems, endless meals for which there has been no bill," the letter says. "You're spending billions of dollars to develop AI technology. It is only fair that you compensate us for using our writings, without which AI would be banal and extremely limited."
The letter was addressed to the CEOs of OpenAI, International Business Machines, Stability AI and several tech companies, which run AI models and chatbots such as Alphabet's Bard, ChatGPT and Llama.
Meta, Alphabet, Stability, IBM and Microsoft didn't reply to a request for comment. In a statement, OpenAI said that ChatGPT is trained on "licensed content, publicly available content, and content created by human AI trainers and users," adding that the company respects the rights of creators and authors."
