00:00Munich Court Rules
00:02ChatGPT broke copyright law by training on lyrics
00:06A Munich Court ruled OpenAI's ChatGPT violated German copyright by training on protected lyrics,
00:12likening its learning phase to a greatest hits download without paying.
00:17The case was brought by GEMA, Germany's music rights society representing about 100,000 composers, lyricists, and publishers.
00:26Last November, GEMA accused OpenAI of using protected lyrics to train ChatGPT.
00:32OpenAI denied it.
00:34The dispute involved nine German hits, including Menner and Atomlos durch die Nacht.
00:40The court found ChatGPT used these lyrics during training without permission.
00:45The judge ordered OpenAI to pay undisclosed damages, which GEMA called the first landmark AI ruling in Europe.
00:53Tech firms stopped treating the internet like Costco samples.
00:57OpenAI says its models don't store songs, but learn from massive data sets.
01:03It argues that if copyrighted lyrics appear, the user, not OpenAI, should be legally responsible.
01:10The court responded with a decisive nine.
01:13GEMA's chief executive, Tobias HolzmĂĽller, said the decision proves that human creative achievements are not free templates.
01:21GEMA's lawyers said the ruling sends a clear signal to global tech, and the German Journalists' Association called it a copyright milestone.
01:31OpenAI is considering an appeal, saying it affects only a tiny fraction of content.
01:37The company said it respects creators' rights and is discussing compensation.
01:41The verdict adds to open source lawsuits and signals.
01:45Europe may tighten copyright enforcement.
