Michael Chabon’s Pulitzer Prize-winning 2000 novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, which describes two Jewish cousins’ collaboration on comic books is at the center of a lawsuit filed on Sept. 8 against OpenAI, which makes the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT.
Chabon and his wife, the Israeli-American writer Ayelet Waldman, and other writers filed the class-action complaint before the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. They demanded a jury trial and are acting “individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated,” per the complaint.
