Incident 1657: Anthropic Allegedly Copied Copyrighted Song Lyrics Without Permission to Train Claude

Description: Music publishers alleged that Anthropic copied copyrighted song lyrics without permission to train Claude and that Claude reproduced protected lyrics in its outputs. Anthropic denied infringement and has argued that its training use is fair use. Publishers alleged that the conduct deprived rightsholders and songwriters of licensing control and revenue and undermined markets for licensed lyrics.
Editor Notes: Timeline notes: Later-disclosed Anthropic records showed Claude reproducing copyrighted song lyrics in third-party responses by 09/27/2023, and music publishers sued Anthropic on 10/18/2023 alleging unauthorized copying of lyrics for Claude training and reproduction in outputs. In 2025, Anthropic agreed to maintain lyric-output guardrails, while a federal judge denied the publishers' preliminary-injunction request without resolving whether the training use constituted fair use. In 2026, BMG and Round Hill brought additional related claims, and the original publishers and Anthropic advanced competing summary-judgment arguments over whether the alleged training use was infringing or protected by fair use. The incident ID was created 08/25/2026.
