Meta Scores AI Fair Use Court Victory, but Judge Warns Such Wins Won't Always Be the Case

  • On June 25, Judge Vince Chhabria ruled in Meta's favor, determining that the company’s incorporation of copyrighted books into the development of its Llama AI models constitutes fair use in the Kadrey v. Meta case.
  • The court ruled against a 2024 lawsuit filed by thirteen writers, among them well-known figures like Sarah Silverman and Ta-Nehisi Coates, who claimed Meta used their copyrighted material without authorization and negatively affected licensing opportunities, but the judge found their claims unconvincing.
  • Two court decisions this week favored AI firms Meta and Anthropic by upholding the transformative nature of AI training despite concerns over pirated materials and market dilution risks.
  • Meta stated, "We appreciate today's decision from the Court," while Judge Chhabria noted the ruling applies only to these plaintiffs and does not declare Meta's use lawful for all cases.
  • The decisions mark early wins for AI firms but leave unresolved whether new legal frameworks are needed and suggest future lawsuits will hinge increasingly on evidence of market harm.
