Meta has revised its business terms to remove language suggesting it could freely train AI on news sites, but legal experts argue the changes are insufficient. Professor James Grimmelmann notes that lingering wording still allows Meta to scrape entire websites under the guise of content "associated with your products or services." The updated terms take effect October 30th.
Background
Meta's AI systems, including those powering Llama models, have faced ongoing scrutiny over whether they can use copyrighted news content for training without proper licensing or consent.
