Episode notes
Fair Use Precedent for AI Training
- A federal judge ruled Anthropic's use of millions of scanned copyrighted books for AI training as "exceedingly transformative" and fair use.
- This sets a key precedent for AI training legality but litigation on pirated data use continues.
AI Box Tool by Jaeden Schafer
- Jaeden developed AI Box, a $20/month tool to access and compare AIs including Anthropic's models.
- This allows users to interact with multiple models conveniently in one place.

- Training AI on data like a human would learning by reading is a reasonable approach according to one perspective.
- Anthropic's main legal issue lies in initially using pirated books before buying physical copies for training.
