Human Artistry Campaign Statement on Historic $1.5 Billion Settlement in Bartz v. Anthropic September 5, 2025 (Washington, DC) -- This settlement is a huge victory not only for the authors involved, but for all writers, artists, and creators who know that their work has value and their rights should be respected when it comes to AI uses. We hope this is just the first of many AI companies to be held accountable for their theft of creative work, and that it helps set a precedent that consent and compensation for works used in AI training are nonnegotiable. Authors who think their work may have been included in the pirated databases used by Anthropic can learn more about how to file a claim for compensation at AnthropicCopyrightLawsuit.com. When it comes to AI accountability and fighting for creators’ rights, this is just the beginning – but a powerful, historic start. ###

graphic reads: Roses are red, violets are blue, it’s literally insane that giant tech companies are sucking all the art, music, and writing they can find into their AI programs which then produce wildly inferior imitations that directly compete with the artists they stole from even going so far as to produce deepfake versions of people and making them say and do things they haven’t, misleading people and fundamentally destabilizing our shared reality and the concept of truth. Happy Valentine’s Day!
