Colin Jerolmack @jerolmack.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Thanks--it appears legitimate [news article pasted below]. As for dropping your claim in exchange for a settlement, that's typical for a class action lawsuit. And it sounds like the $ you got is the same as what this suit provides; perhaps the Guild is part of the suit. www.npr.org/2025/09/05/n...npr.orgAnthropic settles with authors in first-of-its-kind AI copyright infringement lawsuitA U.S. district court is scheduled to consider whether to approve the settlement next week, in a case that marked the first substantive decision on how fair use applies to generative AI systems. 100
