As cited in a peer comment here[0]:

  In June 2025, Judge William Alsup of the U.S. District 
  Court for the Northern District of California ruled on 
  summary judgment that using books without permission to 
  train AI was fair use if they were acquired legally, but he 
  denied Anthropic’s request for summary judgment related to 
  piracy—finding that the piracy was not fair use.[1]

Of note in the judge's finding; "the piracy was not fair use".
