Key takeaway — how to prevent this
Secure licences for training data. The core risk in generative-AI litigation is using copyrighted works to train or operate a model without authorisation — licence data or use cleared/opt-in sources, and keep provenance records.
Inclusion does not imply wrongdoing or liability. A filed lawsuit is an allegation, not a court finding. Status reflects the latest information we have — always check the official source for current status.
