I Wasn’t Sure I Wanted Anthropic to Pay Me for My Books—I Do Now

wired.com Steven Levy 2025-10-01 14:00:00

A billion dollars isn’t what it used to be—but it still focuses the mind. At least it did for me when I heard that the AI company Anthropic agreed to an at least $1.5 billion settlement for authors and publishers whose books were used to train an early version of its large language model, Claude. This came after a judge issued a summary judgement that it had pirated the books it used. The proposed agreement—which is still under scrutiny by the wary judge—would reportedly grant authors a minimum

Pokémon Pokopia looks like Animal Crossing for Pokémon fans and I'm here for it

In one of the most unexpected announcements of today's Nintendo Direct, Game Freak revealed Pokémon Pokopia, a game that is clearly inspired by the Animal Crossing series. When Pokopia is released sometime next year, you'll assume the role of a Ditto determined to make a comfortable home for their friends. This Ditto has assumed the form of a human, and as they meet new Pokémon, they'll learn abilities they can use to transform their community. In turn, this work will lead to more Pokémon coming

The next Pokémon looks a bit like Minecraft

A new Pokémon spinoff is on the way, and it looks very different than any other entry in the long-running franchise. In fact, it looks a little bit like Minecraft — and it’s called Pokémon Pokopia. The game has players controlling a Ditto that has taken on the form of a human, which means that it’s a little cute and also a little creepy. The goal of the game is to shape an empty landscape into a suitable home for some pokémon. That means taming the wilderness, growing crops, and also using a bu

Investing in a meat delivery service has made it easy to have everything I need for cooking dinner delivered right to my door.
