A US judge ruled in favor of AI firm Anthropic by stating that using books to train its Claude AI model does not violate copyright laws, as the usage is deemed 'exceedingly transformative.' However, the judge denied Anthropic's dismissal request, indicating that it must still face a trial for using pirated copies. This ruling is significant amidst ongoing debates over Large Language Models (LLMs) and their training practices, particularly concerning copyrighted material from various media types, including literature and journalism.
Like any reader aspiring to be a writer, Anthropic's LLMs trained upon works, not to race ahead and replicate or supplant them but to turn a hard corner and create something different.
The authors did not claim that the training led to 'infringing knockoffs' with replicas of their works being generated for users of the Claude tool.
