"proposed class settlement,"
"by doing Napster-style downloading of millions of works."
"This historic settlement will benefit all class members,"
"We look forward to announcing details of the settlement in the coming weeks."
Anthropic negotiated a proposed class settlement with US writers who alleged the company trained its Claude AI models on an open-source dataset containing pirated material. The settlement allows Anthropic to skip a December trial that would have determined damages for the alleged copyright infringement. Judge William Alsup previously ruled that training on legally purchased books can qualify as fair use while leaving other claims open for further litigation. A class action alleging "Napster-style downloading of millions of works" had been certified. The settlement is expected to be finalized on September 3. Anthropic declined to comment.
