Totally different. Anthropic could have bought all the books and trained on them. Pirating is a different topic.
You think buying the books would let them plagiarize ? That doesn't seem to be normal in the "book buying" process.
Given the judege in that case flat out rejected the claim that there was any infringement for works they had legally aquired, yes.
Doesn't really matter what I think, its a different concept than pirating. Hence a different thing than what was getting ruled on.
I mean AI or not look at it this way: if a company wanted to train their workers and pirated all the training manuals, piracy is the issue, not the training.
