Sony Music iyo Warner Chappell oo Dacwad ka dhanka ah Anthropic ku soo oogay Maxkamadda California

Shirkadaha muusiga ayaa ku eedeeyay xatooyo hanti-garaad oo baaxad weyn ah oo ay ku beegsanayaan magdhow bilyan doolar ah.

Sony Music iyo Warner Chappell ayaa dacwad ka dhanka ah Anthropic ka gudbiyay Maxkamadda Degmada Waqooyi ee California, iyagoo dalbanaya magdhow uga baxa 'tens of thousands' oo shaqo la xuquuqaysan yahay. Dacwadu waxay ka mid tahay kiisaska waaweyn ee shirkadaha tiknoolajiyadda AI.

Dalabyada Magdhowga iyo Eedeymaha

Shirkaduhu waxay dalbanayaan ilaa $150,000 shaqo kasta, oo ay ku darayaan ilaa $25,000 markasta oo xogta xuquuqda la saaray. Wadar ahaan, magdhowgu wuxuu gaadhi karaa dhowr bilyan doolar haddii maxkamaddu ay guuleysiiso Sony iyo Warner oo ay bixiso lacagta ugu badan.

Shirkaduhu waxay ku tilmaameen ficiladaas 'one of the largest and most blatant ongoing thefts of intellectual property in history.' Tani waa dacwadii ugu dambeysay ee caan ah ee ka dhanka ah Anthropic, ka dib markii ay $1.5 billion ku xalliyeen dacwad qaybta daabacaadda.

Eedeymaha Aasaasayaasha iyo Xogta Tababarada

Dacwadu waxay magacawday aasaasayaasha Dario Amodei iyo Benjamin Mann oo ah eedaysane shaqsiyadeed. Waxaa lagu eedeeyay in Mann uu BitTorrent ku soo degsiiyay in ka badan five million buug oo la xado, shaqaana ay soo degsiiyeen ugu yaraan two million oo kale.

Sidoo kale, Anthropic ayaa laga sheegay inay xog ka soo xaratay bogagga MusixMatch iyo LyricFind. Heesaha ku xusan xogta tababarada waxaa ka mid ah 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough', 'Livin' On a Prayer', 'September', 'Hallelujah' iyo 'Paper Rings'.

Dacwadaha Kale iyo Jawaabta Anthropic

Anthropic waxay wajahday dacwado badan oo ka yimid Universal Music Group, Concord, ABKCO, iyo sidoo kale BMG iyo Round Hill Music. Tani waxay muujinaysaa cadaadiska sharci ee sii kordhaya ee saaran shirkadaha AI ee isticmaala hantida garaadka.

Anthropic lama helin jawaab degdeg ah markii laga codsaday faallo ku saabsan dacwadda. Ilaa hadda, dacwadda ayaa furan oo maxkamaddu ayaa go'aamin doonta natiijada iyo magdhowga la dalbanayo.

Sony Music and Warner Chappell have filed a lawsuit against Anthropic in the US District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging the AI company engaged in one of the largest ongoing thefts of intellectual property in history by scraping tens of thousands of copyrighted works to train its Claude models.

Damages Could Reach Several Billion Dollars

The companies are seeking up to $150,000 per copyrighted work, plus an additional $25,000 for each instance where identifiable copyright data was stripped from the training data. If a court awards the maximum amount across tens of thousands of works, total damages could amount to several billion dollars.

This staggering figure reflects the scale of the alleged infringement, which the plaintiffs describe as a brazen campaign of illegally torrenting, scraping, and downloading copyrighted works on a massive scale to develop, operate, and reap enormous profits from Anthropic's Claude series of artificial intelligence models.

Founders Named as Individual Defendants

In addition to suing Anthropic as an entity, the complaint names co-founders Dario Amodei and Benjamin Mann as individual defendants. The suit alleges that Mann used BitTorrent to download over five million pirated books, while employees downloaded at least two million more from Pirate Library Mirror.

It further claims that Anthropic scraped lyrics from licensed sites such as MusixMatch and LyricFind, which paid to license content from the labels. Specific songs named as being found in Anthropic's training data include Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell's 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough,' Bon Jovi's 'Livin' On a Prayer,' and TaylorSwift's 'Paper Rings.'

Anthropic Faces a Wave of Copyright Lawsuits

This is the latest high-profile suit against Anthropic, which recently settled a suit brought by the publishing industry for $1.5 billion. The company has also faced multiple lawsuits from Universal Music Group, Concord, and ABKCO, plus separate suits from BMG and Round Hill Music.

Anthropic did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The mounting legal challenges highlight the growing tension between AI developers and the music industry over the use of copyrighted material in training data.
