Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín approved Anthropic's $1.5B copyright class-action settlement, the largest ever. ~95% of class members were notified, 91% of authors and publishers filed claims, and only 350 opted out. Each work receives ~$3,000, four times the statutory minimum. Attorney fees cut from $300M to ~$101M, and service awards from $50K to $15K each. AI developers should note: massive book scraping for training may constitute infringement, even if training is fair use. Anthropic must destroy all involved works and allows separate suits for future misuse. Authors get ~$3,000 per work but waive rights to sue for higher damages individually.
