Reddit Sues Anthropic, Says AI Company Exploited User Data
Reddit Inc. has reached AI licensing agreements with Anthropic competitors OpenAI and Alphabet Inc.’s Google.
Photographer: Brendon Thorne/BloombergReddit Inc. sued artificial intelligence firm Anthropic, saying it has used the social media company’s content without permission to train its AI models.
The lawsuit, which was filed Wednesday in San Francisco Superior Court, alleges that Anthropic attempted to access Reddit data more than 100,000 times since last July. Reddit said this “unauthorized commercial use of its content” has breached its rules and exploited users’ personal data without their consent.
