Recently, Microsoft and its investor OpenAI were sued for collecting data for artificial intelligence tools. The plaintiffs claimed that the companies recorded all content on the internet in their databases without paying any fee to copyright owners, and then used this data for commercial purposes.
It is also claimed that Microsoft, in particular, does not respect individuals’ personal privacy and discloses their private information. Within the scope of the lawsuit, it is requested that all these contents used without permission be cleared from the internet and that the people whose data is used be given the opportunity to delete this data. Here are all the details…
Microsoft was exposed to artificial intelligence lawsuit!
While it is stated that Microsoft and OpenAI trained their artificial intelligence algorithms through internet content they received without permission, it is said that they continue to mine personal data at full speed. The petition also argues that this situation will pose a great risk in the long term for millions of people whose personal information has been stolen.
Microsoft, on the other hand, said in its statement on the subject that the claims made were not supported by any evidence, and that the technologies they introduced did not pose a danger to humanity. There are even those who say that the company may file a counter-suit.
Microsoft was on the radar of European countries!
The leading cloud computing infrastructure companies in the European region accused Microsoft management of not complying with the principles of fair competition.
OpenAI officials also say that there is no evidence of data theft, and that they have already received permission from users to access some of their data when signing up. The company also stated that it is impossible to protect all data on the internet and stated that they show great sensitivity about user security. We will see together in the coming period how all these developments will affect the new artificial intelligence projects to be carried out by Microsoft.
