Previously, she was a writer and editor at MUO.The New York Times has escalated its legal battle against the AI startup Perplexity, as it’s now suing the AI “answer engine” for allegedly producing and profiting from responses that are “verbatim or substantially similar copies” of the publication’s work.The lawsuit, filed in a New York federal court on Friday, claims Perplexity “unlawfully crawls, scrapes, copies, and distributes” content from the NYT. It comes after the outlet’s repeated demands for Perplexity to stop using content from its website, as the NYT sent cease-and-desist notices to the AI startup last year and most recently in July, according to the lawsuit. The Chicago Tribune also filed a copyright lawsuit against Perplexity on Thursday.The New York Times sued OpenAI for copyright infringement in December 2023, and later inked a deal with Amazon, bringing its content to products like Alexa.Perplexity became the subject of several lawsuits after reporting from Forbes and Wired revealed that the startup had been skirting websites’ paywalls to provide AI-generated summaries — and in some cases, copies — of their work. The NYT makes similar accusations in its lawsuit, stating that Perplexity’s crawlers “have intentionally ignored or evaded technical content protection measures,” such as the robots.txt file, which indicates the parts of a website crawlers can access.Perplexity attempted to smooth things over by launching a program to share ad revenue with publishers last year, which it later expanded to include its Comet web browser in August.RelatedCloudflare says Perplexity’s AI bots are ‘stealth crawling’ blocked sitesPerplexity is cutting checks to publishers following plagiarism accusations“By copying The Times’s copyrighted content and creating substitutive output derived from its works, obviating the need for users to visit The Times’s website or purchase its newspaper, Perplexity is misappropriating substantial subscription, advertising, licensing, and affiliate revenue opportunities that belong rightfully and exclusively to The Times,” the lawsuit states.The NYT is seeking damages and is also asking the court to permanently block the AI startup from engaging in its allegedly unlawful behavior. Perplexity didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.Follow topics and authors from this story to see more like this in your personalized homepage feed and to receive email updates.Emma RothCloseEmma RothNews WriterPosts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.FollowFollowSee All by Emma RothAICloseAIPosts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.FollowFollowSee All AICopyrightCloseCopyrightPosts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.FollowFollowSee All CopyrightLawCloseLawPosts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.FollowFollowSee All LawNewsCloseNewsPosts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.FollowFollowSee All NewsPolicyClosePolicyPosts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.FollowFollowSee All PolicyTechCloseTechPosts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.FollowFollowSee All TechMore in: Perplexity AI: the answer engine with a lot of question marksAmazon and Perplexity have kicked off the great AI web browser fightEmma RothNov 4Cloudflare says Perplexity’s AI bots are ‘stealth crawling’ blocked sitesEmma RothAug 4Perplexity’s Comet is the AI browser Google wantsEmma RothJul 18Most PopularMost PopularNetflix wins the bidding war for Warner Bros.Antigravity’s 360-degree drone is here to help you forget DJICrucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies insteadMicrosoft is quietly walking back its diversity effortsGoogle’s AI model is getting really good at spoofing phone photosThe Verge DailyA free daily digest of the news that matters most.Email (required)Sign UpBy submitting your email, you agree to our Terms and Privacy Notice.
