Description
Judge Eumi K. Lee just called out the music publishers in Concord II over 20,517 songs Claude was allegedly trained on.
Concord Music told the court Claude outputs verbatim or near-verbatim copies of all those lyrics. They made it sound like they had the goods. Then at the hearing it became clear they don't have even a single example of any of those works actually showing up in Claude's outputs.
Now, they're just asking the court to infer output infringement just because the lyrics were in the training data.
That's not how it works. And she already wasn't thrilled with these same counsel in Concord I. Pissing off the judge who has to decide your motions isn't a winning strategy!
Here's what actually happened in the letter and why it matters for the rest of these AI copyright cases.
