Who’s Suing AI and Who’s Signing: Danish Publishers Take OpenAI to Court

Danish media body DPCMO filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging the AI giant trained ChatGPT on member publishers’ content without consent. The filing follows a wave of US lawsuits, including actions by The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, US News & World Report, and a consortium of Alden‑owned regional papers targeting OpenAI, Perplexity and Google. At the same time, more than 500 news outlets have signed licensing agreements with AI firms such as OpenAI, Amazon, Meta and Prorata, often for fees ranging from $1‑5 million to over $250 million. The split between litigation and partnership highlights a pivotal moment for the publishing industry’s relationship with generative AI.
