Delhi High Court is hearing on behalf of Digital News Publishers Association (DNPA) seeking intervention in the copyright infringement suit filed by Asian News International (ANI) against Open AI. 
The matter is being heard by Justice Amit Bansal.
Senior Rajshekhar Rao appearing for DNPA - It reduces my inventive to create. If ChatGPT is 'ChaatGPT' then..At some point a large chunk of my population will die. The distinguishing feature in US law is that it does not recognise storage.
Now another Intervenor supporting ChatGPT is addressing the Court - We are an AI based shopping platform, Zoop. I use ChatGPT. Storage is not violation of copyright.
Counsel - It is a reproduced copy, not stored. The Court is goung through Section 15 of the Copyright Act.
Intervenor - Unauthorised reproduction is the issue in Copyright Act. When storage is for reproduction it is covered under section 14. Mere viewing or downloading is not an offence, only infringement is, as per Eros judgment.
Intervenor - The storage is for training. it answers queries. It is not to reproduce plaintiff's work. It is similar to a guide book. I have the option of reading course book or a guide book or dukki. It scrapes many articles and gives me a summary. It is derivative work.
The Court will hear the concluding arguments, rebuttal and summarisation of amici on the next dates of hearing.
