What happened
The National Writers Union published a statement condemning AI companies' "scan-and-destroy" training-data operations, citing internal documents surfaced in *Bartz v. Anthropic* that describe "Project Panama" — an Anthropic effort to destructively scan print books at scale while, the union says, keeping the effort from authors and publishers.
What the source establishes
The statement is the NWU's own characterization of litigation documents; the union urges opposition to the practice and frames it as part of the broader fight over unlicensed book ingestion for model training. No court has ruled on the characterization as presented here.
