George R.R. Martin thinks the AI program ChatGPT was trained using his books. He says when he asked it the right question, the AI generated a surprisingly accurate plot idea for a new story. As a result, he filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft in late October. These companies have faced similar legal action from other artists before.
ChatGPT creates a new chapter of A Song of Ice and Fire
Okay, so George R.R. Martin still hasn’t finished the books, and honestly, who knows when the next one will ever come out? But apparently, AI might be able to help us fill the gap! There’s this lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, and it claims ChatGPT actually wrote an outline for a whole new chapter, like a ‘what if?’ scenario from the existing story. It’s wild to think an AI could contribute to something like that!
Lawyers prompted the AI to create a comprehensive plan for a follow-up to “A Clash of Kings,” requesting a storyline that differed from “A Storm of Swords” and explored new possibilities. ChatGPT responded positively and offered ideas that heavily borrowed from the style and themes of George R.R. Martin’s writing.
ChatGPT created an original story called A Dance With Shadows and added entirely new characters and plot points, such as a new Targaryen family member named Lady Elara, a previously unknown group of the Children of the Forest, and a unique form of magic connected to dragons. Judge Sidney Stein determined this is sufficient evidence to support the legal claim.
The jury might decide that the works accused of copyright infringement are substantially similar to the original works.
George R.R. Martin joined a growing number of authors suing OpenAI and Microsoft in 2023. These lawsuits stem from concerns that the companies used the authors’ copyrighted books to train their chatbots without permission. As of now, neither OpenAI nor Microsoft has publicly responded to these claims, according to reports from Collider and other sources.
