Original: Anthropic trained Claude on illegally obtained Stanford professors' books

The Stanford Daily reports that Anthropic used pirated copies of books written by Stanford professors to train its Claude AI models, raising fresh legal and ethical questions about how AI companies source copyrighted material. The allegation has drawn wide attention, adding to ongoing copyright lawsuits and debates over whether AI firms may use authors' works without permission or compensation.

Why now: It fuels the ongoing controversy and litigation over AI companies using copyrighted books without authorization.
