Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko said AI companies are entitled to use publicly available data that users voluntarily post online to train models, citing fair use under Section 107 of U.S. copyright law. His comment came as AI company Anthropic reached a $1.5 billion settlement tied to copyright infringement claims. The report also laid out two possible implications for crypto infrastructure, depending on how courts interpret fair use. A broad reading could reduce demand for blockchain-based provenance tools. A narrower reading could push onchain licensing systems into a more central role for AI companies that need clear rights management over training data. The remarks were cited by Techub, with CryptoBriefing referenced in the item.
