EFF urges courts to resist AI-driven copyright expansions in ongoing litigation

What happened

The EFF argues that courts should not broaden copyright protections in response to generative AI, citing historical parallels with VTR technology. It references ongoing cases such as Concord Music Group, Inc. v. Anthropic PBC and In re Mosaic LLM Litigation where rightsholders seek expanded rights. The organization contends that the “market dilution” theory is unsupported and would harm creativity.

Why it matters for trust and compliance

• Its status is pending. The case is still open; the outcome may change what it means.
• Highlights the risk of over‑reaching copyright rulings on AI tools.
