Northern District of California Court Holds State Tort and Contract Claims Not Preempted by Federal Copyright Act, Remands Reddit v. Anthropic to State Court

Last month, in a ruling that may carry significant implications for the artificial intelligence industry, a California federal court held that state tort and contract claims related to the training of AI models were not preempted by federal law and could proceed in state court. Because many AI models were trained in a similar fashion---by scraping data from online posts and repositories---the decision suggests other plaintiffs may bring such claims in state courts, in addition to federal claims of copyright infringement.

The Artificial Intelligence Agenda from Capitol Hill to State Capitals: Where We Are and Where We Are (Probably) Going

The landscape of AI governance and regulation is shifting. Following the release of the White House’s “America’s AI Action Plan” in July 2025 and the President’s signing of related Executive Orders, the White House has emphasized (at least rhetorically) a preference for innovation, adoption, and deregulation. But that does not tell the entire story. The Administration remains committed to exercising a heavy hand in AI, including by banning the U.S. government’s procurement of so-called “woke AI,” intervening in the development of data centers and the export of the AI technology stack, imposing an export fee for certain semiconductors to China, and assuming a stake in a U.S. semiconductor company. State legislatures are also racing to implement their own regulations, particularly around AI’s use in critical areas, such as healthcare, labor and employment, and data privacy.
