The Canadian Legal Information Institute has taken the makers of an AI chatbot to court over what it says are a violation of its terms of service, due to the chatbot scraping CanLII's database in bulk.A CBC Vancouver journalist looks at the Canadian Legal Information Institute website in the CBC Vancouver newsroom. The non-profit institute is taking an AI chatbot to court over what it claims is copyright infringement.
CanLII argues that it conducts work on the publicly-accessible court records to make them more readable, including by adding hyperlinks and correcting errors. "We would welcome a collaboration with CanLII, and are surprised that, as a not-for-profit organization, CanLII has instead opted to take such an aggressive and competitive posture toward Caseway," reads a statement from a Caseway spokesperson.The spokesperson said the information CanLII provides is public and accessible elsewhere, and the chatbot did not use any enhancements the database may have made.
"In short, CanLII's services continue as before, with no demonstrable harm or financial detriment resulting from Caseway's independent data sourcing methods," the statement reads.
