A lawsuit filed Friday claims Anthropic infringed 274 Elvis Presley songs — including "Can't Help Falling in Love," "A Little Less Conversation" and "Don't Be Cruel" — by using them to train AI models, per Variety.
The suit adds another high-profile copyright case to the wave of legal challenges over AI training data. The tweet itself frames it as a joke ("Claude has been listening to Elvis without permission"), but the underlying news is a serious legal escalation.
