Well. One (infinitesimal) step closer to an exceedingly mild consequence for "AI" companies' mass theft of creative labour.

I do take issue with the judge asserting those who filed claims "agreed" the award amount was "fair". More like, we realised this might be the only pittance we ever see for mass theft of our work, and chose to take it.
It could be fifty times the amount and still not enough, or close to "fair".
