A landmark settlement has been reached in the much-talked-of Anthropic copyright infringement case. $1.5 billion will be paid out to thousands of authors whose books were used to train the Claude chatbot.

The biggest takeaway from the judge’s ruling for those of us in the book world? It all hinged on the fact that the books in question were pirated. As of now, it appears training chatbots on copyrighted books that have been rightfully purchased or licensed will fall under fair use.

Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín approved the landmark settlement in the class action copyright lawsuit on July 20. Authors and publishers are entitled to receive about $3,000 for each infringed work used to train the AI company’s large language models.
