A district judge ruled in Meta's favor in a copyright infringement case involving 13 authors who claimed their works were used without permission for AI training. The judge concluded that Meta's use fell under the fair use doctrine, emphasizing that the plaintiffs did not demonstrate any actual market harm from Meta’s AI summarizing their books. This ruling underscores the ongoing struggle between copyright protections and the needs of technological advancements, particularly in the AI sector, and reflects a broader trend of legal wins for tech companies in copyright disputes.
"The plaintiffs failed in this case to show that Meta's use of copyrighted material caused 'market harm.'"
"Meta's use of books to train its AI model was protected under the fair use doctrine in U.S. copyright law."
