Anthropic settles copyright claims at roughly $3,000 per alleged infringement

The post says Anthropic agreed to pay about $3,000 per copyright infringement to resolve piracy claims without a trial determining final liability or damages.

It frames the deal as evidence that LLMs are built to continuously ingest human intellectual labor, and contrasts that with U.S. copyright law, which can allow statutory damages of up to $150,000 per infringed work for willful infringement.
