Authors have sued NVIDIA over NeMo, the company's AI language model that helps to create and train chatbots, Engadget reports.
According to authors Abdi Nazemian,
Brian Keene and Stewart O'Nan, their
books were illegally used to train the AI.
They are seeking a jury trial and want NIVIDIA to pay damages and destroy the dataset that powers NeMo's large language models.
According to the authors, the Books3
dataset copied Bibliotek, a shadow library containing 196,640 pirated books.
In sum, NVIDIA has admitted
training its NeMo Megatron models
on a copy of The Pile dataset.
, Via lawsuit against NVIDIA.
Therefore, NVIDIA necessarily also
trained its NeMo Megatron models
on a copy of Books3, because
Books3 is part of The Pile.
, Via lawsuit against NVIDIA.
Certain books written by Plaintiffs
are part of Books3— including
the Infringed Works—, Via lawsuit against NVIDIA.
... and thus NVIDIA necessarily trained
its NeMo Megatron models on one or
more copies of the Infringed Works,
thereby directly infringing the
copyrights of the Plaintiffs, Via lawsuit against NVIDIA.
NVIDIA responded to the suit, telling 'The Wall Street Journal,' "we respect the rights of all content creators and believe we created NeMo in full compliance with copyright law.".
OpenAI and Microsoft were hit
with a similar lawsuit last year.
OpenAI and Microsoft Make Plans , for $100 Billion Data Center.

According to The Information, the two companies are planning to build a data center that would house an AI supercomputer
called "Stargate," Reuters reports.
The project, which could cost $100 billion or more, is reportedly set to launch in 2028.
The tentative cost is roughly 100 times
more expensive than some of the
biggest data centers that exist today. .
Demand for AI data centers has increased due to
the rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence technology, Reuters reports. .
This is because traditional data
centers aren't as capable of handling
the advanced tasks that AI requires. .
Several supercomputers
would be built across five phases.
"Stargate" would be launched in the fifth phase, while a smaller supercomputer would be launched
in the fourth phase, tentatively around 2026.
Microsoft and OpenAI are reportedly
in the third phase currently.
We are always planning for
the next generation of infrastructure
innovations needed to continue
pushing the frontier of AI capability, Microsoft spokesperson, to Reuters .
The cost for the next two phases largely revolves around acquiring expensive AI chips.
In March, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said
that the newest "Blackwell" B200 AI chip
will cost between $30,000 and $40,000
