AI Risks Emerge in Legal and Business Contexts: Anthropic's Downloading Scandal Sparks Concern

Published on 4.14.25

  The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in various industries has been on the rise, but recent incidents have highlighted the potential risks and consequences of relying on these systems. In the context of law, AI-generated content has led to severe consequences, including the use of fake legal citations by lawyers. A notable incident involved Anthropic, an AI startup accused of illegally downloading books to train its model. This case demonstrates the need for careful consideration when using AI in real-world applications. The involvement of high-profile figures such as Elon Musk and Sam Altman highlights the growing concern about the direction of AI research and its potential impact on society. US federal judge William Alsup's decision to grant Anthropic 14 days instead of four to file a reply, allowing the company more time to respond to allegations, underscores the complexities surrounding AI regulation.
