Book authors Andrea Bartz, Charles Graeber, and Kirk Wallace Johnson are accusing Anthropic of copyright infringement.
A group of authors is suing artificial intelligence startup Anthropic, alleging it committed “large-scale theft” in training its popular chatbot Claude on pirated copies of copyrighted books.
While similar lawsuits have piled up for more than a year against competitor OpenAI, maker of ChatGPT, this is the first from writers to target Anthropic and its Claude chatbot.
