Huckabee Sues Meta, Microsoft for Using His Books in AI Training Without Payment

Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee is suing Meta, Microsoft, and others over use of his books in AI training datasets.

The lawsuit alleges tech companies pirated books to train AI models without compensation.

It's the latest in a string of suits from authors like George R.R. Martin over use of their work in AI.
