OpenAI, along with Google, Microsoft, and others, vows to support its users financially in the event of copyright infringement lawsuits.
OpenAI's pledge, known as Copyright Shield, only applies to business-tier ChatGPT users and its developer platform.
However, the free and Plus ChatGPT versions are not included in this coverage.
At OpenAI’s DevDay conference, CEO Sam Altman announced that they will defend their customers and bear the legal costs incurred by copyright infringement claims.
