A federal judge dismissed a copyright infringement lawsuit brought by 13 authors against Meta, accusing the company of using their works to train its AI models without permission. The judge ruled that while Meta won the case, it was due to the plaintiffs’ weak legal arguments rather than Meta’s practices being declared lawful. The ruling is limited to these authors and doesn’t set a broader precedent but leaves room for future cases. The decision comes amid ongoing legal disputes over whether using copyrighted materials to develop generative AI constitutes fair use under US law.
