On February 23, 2026, three of South Korea’s leading terrestrial broadcasters—KBS, MBC, and SBS—jointly filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, at the Seoul Central District Court. The broadcasters allege that OpenAI utilized their news content without authorization for training its AI models. They are seeking compensation from OpenAI and a court order to prohibit the further use of the unlicensed content in question.
