In its lawsuit, Reddit said Anthropic had also declined to enter into a licensing agreement for data and had unjustly enriched itself at Reddit’s expense.

Reddit started a legal fight against AI giant Anthropic over data scraping, highlighting issues of content ownership and copyright in the genAI era.

Reddit had filed a lawsuit against Anthropic, alleging that the AI company behind the Claude chatbot has been using its data for years without permission. The lawsuit comes after Reedit has increasingly taken a hardline stance against scrapers and companies that use its data to train AI models.
