The Surprising Truth About “No AI Scraping” Notices: Are They Really Shielding Your Creative Work?
UNSETTLED LAW
At first blush, I was dismissive of the efficacy of inserting such a “legal notice” on the copyright page of an author’s work. Obviously, existing federal copyright law has been no deterrent to any of the major tech players when they train their Large Language Models (LLMs) using hundreds of thousands of copyrighted works. In fact, many Tech CEOs knew that what they were doing was questionable (cutting, scanning, and disposing of copyrighted works in the name of training AI) and downright illegal (obtaining pirated ebooks to feed into their systems).
