Reddit has filed a lawsuit against Anthropic, alleging that the AI startup used data from its more than 100 million daily users without permission to train its AI models. The lawsuit claims Anthropic attempted to access Reddit's data over 100,000 times and failed to enter a licensing agreement, thereby unjustly enriching itself. Reddit's legal officials emphasize the need for limitations on how AI companies use digital content and stress they will protect their users' data rights against exploitation in light of the growing tension over data usage in the AI industry.
"A.I. companies should not be allowed to scrape information and content from people without clear limitations on how they can use that data."
"We will not tolerate profit-seeking entities like Anthropic commercially exploiting Reddit content for billions of dollars without any return for redditors or respect for their privacy."
