A group of authors sued Meta, accusing the company of using their copyrighted books to train its AI models.
The judge dismissed most of the lawsuit, pointing out that the plaintiffs' lawyers failed to make the right arguments.
The ruling did not clear Meta's actions but highlighted that the plaintiffs did not provide a strong enough argument against Meta's use of copyrighted materials.
Another judge ruled in favor of AI startup Anthropic in a similar case, stating that their use of copyrighted books for AI training qualified as fair use.
