Nvidia falls under lawsuit by three authors claiming the usage of their copyrighted books without permission to train its NeMo AI platform.

Brian Keene, Abdi Nazemian and Stewart O'Nan said their works were part of a dataset of about 196,640 books that helped train NeMo to simulate ordinary written language, before being taken down in October "due to reported copyright infringement."

The case was filed at a San Francisco federal court with the authors stating that the take-down reflects Nvidia's having "admitted" it trained NeMo on the dataset, and thereby infringed their copyrights.

Currently, unspecified damages are being sought after for the people in the US claiming copyright works helped train NeMo's large language models for up to three years.

Among the works covered by the lawsuit are Keene's 2008 novel "Ghost Walk," Nazemian's 2019 novel "Like a Love Story," and O'Nan's 2007 novella "Last Night at the Lobster."

The present lawsuit against Nvidia adds up to a bunch of litigation by writers and the New York Times for using its generative AI to create new content based on text, images and sounds.

Microsoft and OpenAI, the company that developed ChatGPT, are among the other businesses that have been sued over the technology.

Investors now choose Nvidia because to the growth of AI.

Since the end of 2022, the stock price of the Santa Clara, California-based chipmaker has increased by about 600%, placing Nvidia's market worth at almost $2.2 trillion.
