TechFlow news, June 20 — According to the Financial Times, the BBC has sent a warning letter to AI search engine Perplexity, threatening legal action over allegations that the U.S. startup scraped BBC content without authorization to train its AI models. The BBC demands that Perplexity cease scraping all its content, delete any stored materials, and proposes a financial compensation arrangement. This marks the first time the BBC has taken such action against an AI company. Perplexity has pushed back, calling the BBC's claims "manipulative and opportunistic" and stating that the BBC has a "fundamental misunderstanding of technology, the internet, and intellectual property law." Perplexity is currently finalizing a new funding round that would value the company at $14 billion and has already established revenue-sharing agreements with publishers such as Time and Fortune.
