"Anthropic cut up millions of used books to train Claude — and downloaded over 7 million pirated ones too, a judge said."

A not-so-subtle difference.

That said, in a sane world, they shouldn't have needed to cut up all those used books yet again when there's obviously already an existing file that does all the work.
