A $1.5 Billion Boardroom Lesson: AI & Copyright Reckoning

Anthropic has agreed to pay $1.5 billion to settle a class-action lawsuit from authors and publishers, accused of using pirated books to train its Claude chatbot. Pending court approval in San Francisco, this marks the largest copyright recovery in history—and a wake-up call for every AI company and boardroom.

Key Figures:
• ~$3,000 per book × ~500,000 titles
• Establishes a de facto licensing benchmark across music, images, film, and journalism
• Demonstrates that licensed data is far less costly than litigation

Significance:
• Judge Alsup ruled pirated books “inherently, irredeemably infringing”
• Potential damages were in the hundreds of billions
• Anthropic settled to avoid catastrophic exposure

Industry Implications:
1. Music publishers (e.g., Universal, Concord) preparing similar claims—1M songs could equal $3B in liabilities
2. Stock image libraries: tens of millions of works could result in claims in the tens or hundreds of billions
3. European rights holders are likely to pursue similar compensation

Outstanding Issues:
• The settlement does not address AI-generated outputs, leaving future disputes unresolved

Boardroom Takeaway:
This is more than a settlement—it is a governance milestone. Intellectual property has been validated as a central asset in the AI era, and the era of “use now, justify later” is ending. Companies must prepare for structured licensing deals, provenance warranties, and per-work pricing models.

For boards and directors, the responsibility extends beyond compliance—this is a fiduciary duty in the age of generative AI. The next $1.5 billion lesson could arise in music, images, or film—are boardrooms ready?

We are pleased to announce the official launch of our sister company GBM PUBLISHING in the APAC on 1st August 2025, marking a significant step forward in our mission to empower and represent music creators worldwide.

Since 2018, GBM Publishing has been actively collecting mechanical royalties, performance royalties, broadcast royalties and all other music rights income under reciprocal agreements with all major Collection Societies, CMOs, RAEs, MROs, and PROs worldwide.

With this expansion, we are especially proud to support songwriters who have not yet registered for an IPI number, offering them a pathway into the global music rights ecosystem with full administrative support, royalty tracking, and representation across all platforms.

This milestone reflects our continued commitment to bridging gaps in music publishing infrastructure and ensuring every creator has access to the royalties they’ve earned.
