   Anthropic to pay $1.5b to settle authors’ copyright claims. In the first major settlement by an AI company over training its model on copyrighted works, Anthropic has agreed to shell out $1.5 billion to resolve claims by authors that it downloaded pirated copies of their books for training. The settlement must still be approved by a judge, but if it had gone to trial and lost the case, Anthropic could have faced $1 trillion in damages to the authors of 7 million books, per Bloomberg. The deal comes as dozens of suits remain pending against Anthropic and its competitors in the AI space over the use of intellectual property to train their models.
