In Section C of the statement we’re examining, the U.S. government relies on a similar argument, asserting that “training of LLMs on written works is exceedingly transformative.” The statement cites a variety of legal precedents in support of that assertion, including Bartz v. Anthropic PBC, in which the judge found Anthropic’s use of copyrighted materials to train an LLM “quintessentially transformative — spectacularly so” — while, at the same time, the judge ruled that using illegally acquired texts for that purpose was itself still illegal; in other words, making a fair use of the copyrighted content did not erase the illegality of using pirated copies. (Unsurprisingly, the Copyright Alliance disagreed strongly with that finding.)
