The judge allows the demand for the copyright of the authors against Meta Advance

A federal judge is allowing a claim for copyright related to the meter, although it dismissed part of the claim.

In Kadrey vs. Meta, authors, including Richard Kadrey, Sarah Silverman and Ta-Nehisi Coates, have alleged that Meta has violated their intellectual property rights by using their books to train its flame AI models, and that the company eliminated the copyright information of its books to hide the alleged infraction.

Meanwhile, Meta has affirmed that his training qualifies as a fair use, and argued that the case should be dismissed because the authors lack position to sue. In court last month, the United States District Judge, Vince Chhabria, seemed to indicate that it was Against dismissalBut he also criticizes what he saw as an “exaggerated” rhetoric of the legal teams of the authors.

On Friday decisionChhabria wrote that the accusation of copyright violation is “obviously a sufficient concrete injury for the position” and that the authors have also “adequately alleged that intentionally target CMI (copyright management information) to hide the infringement of copyright.”

“Taken together, these accusations raise a ‘reasonable inference, if not particularly strong’, which Meta eliminated CMI to try to avoid it calls CMI and, therefore, revealed that it was trained with copyright material,” Chhabria wrote.

However, the judge dismissed the claims of the authors related to the Data Access and Computer Frank of California (CDAF), because they did not “claim that Meta agreed to their computers or servers, only their data (in the form of their books).”

The claim has already provided some glimpse on how the copyright is approaching, with judicial presentations of the plaintiffs who claim that Mark Zuckerberg gave permission to the flame team To train the models using works with copyright and that other Meta Team members discussed the use of legally questionable content For AI training.

The courts are weighing a series of demands for the copyright of AI at this time, including New York Times the demand against Openai.
