Sony, Warner sue Anthropic, alleging "blatant theft" of intellectual property

Uh AI steals everyone’s work. How it’s legal I’ll never know.

because it was ruled to be a transformative work, like how someone making a video essay on a book/game/movie is (sometimes) not violating copyright.

If AI continues to be treated as transformative work, there should also be a valid case to kill licensing requirements for sampling music. After all, there you’re literally using small clips of someone’s music or similar to make undeniably new art.
