The New York Times has sent a cease and desist letter to Perplexity, claiming that the AI startup's use of its content violates copyright law and has unjustly enriched them.
Perplexity's CEO Aravind Srinivas emphasized their intent to collaborate with publishers including the New York Times, stating they are not ignoring the cease and desist notice.
This situation reflects a broader pattern of conflicts between AI firms and traditional media, as the New York Times previously sued OpenAI and Microsoft for similar copyright infringements.
An investigation into Perplexity AI by Amazon Web Services found that it had repeatedly scanned Condé Nast properties for content, raising further copyright concerns.
