News Corp, the parent company of The Wall Street Journal and the New York Post, has filed a copyright lawsuit against the AI search engine Perplexity.

News Corp, the parent company of media outlets like The Wall Street Journal and the New York Post, is suing the AI search engine Perplexity for infringing copyrighted content. In a lawsuit filed on Monday, News Corp alleges Perplexity copies news articles, analyses, and opinions “on a massive scale.” Perplexity is an AI startup that trains its AI search models using content from around the web, allowing it to respond to user queries with a summary of its sources.

” Over the past several months, news outlets like Wired and Forbes have accused Perplexity of scraping content without permission, bypassing paywalls, and even plagiarizing written work. Last week, The New York Times, which is also suing OpenAI, sent a cease and desist letter to Perplexity asking it to stop using its content. Perplexity has started paying some publishers for their content, including Time and Fortune.
