Rupert Murdoch's companies, Dow Jones and the New York Post, have filed a lawsuit against the AI startup Perplexity, accusing it of illegally copying a significant amount of their copyrighted materials to fuel its search tools. The lawsuit claims that Perplexity's use of these works without permission or compensation undermines the value created by journalists and publishers. The suit seeks to prevent Perplexity from utilizing their content and demands the destruction of databases containing the infringed works.
