The Seattle Times and Newsday have taken legal action against OpenAI and Microsoft, accusing them of unauthorized use of their journalism to train AI models.

Authors Challenge Publisher Claims on Anthropic Settlement
Authors are voicing concerns over publishers and agents claiming portions of Anthropic's $1.5 billion copyright settlement. This settlement aims to compensate authors for pirated works used in AI training, but disputes have emerged regarding how payments are allocated. Some publishers are reportedly seeking payments for works they no longer have rights to, while others are demanding full payments instead of the agreed 50-50 split. Industry representatives suggest these issues may stem from inadequate record-keeping rather than intentional wrongdoing. This situation reveals the complexities involved in distributing large settlements within the publishing industry. It also raises questions about the accuracy of publisher-author agreements. The unfolding events suggest a need for clearer processes in handling copyright settlements involving AI.
