A federal judge has found Anthropic’s use of books to train its AI models was legal in some circumstances, but not others, Meg Tanaka of The Wall Street Journal reports. Judge William Alsup of the Northern District of California ruled Anthropic’s use of copyrighted books for AI model training was legal under U.S. copyright law if it had purchased those books. The ruling does not apply to the more than 7M books the company obtained through “pirated” means. Anthropic is backed by Amazon (AMZN) and Google (GOOGL).
