"Thomson Reuters won the first significant copyright case against an AI company today. Reuters, which, in addition to owning the international news agency, creates a legal research database through its firm Westlaw, claims Ross, the makers of a similar, AI-powered database, stole copyrighted information to train its system. Following a 2023 decision in favor of a jury trial to determine how much “creative spark” Ross’ product had, U.S. District Court Judge Stephanos Bibas revised his previous decision and granted Reuters a partial summary judgment. The judge determined that the AI industry’s understanding of fair use is flawed."
