What happened

Stanford University is seeking, by stipulation, to file a First Amended Answer in EVOX Productions' copyright infringement lawsuit, in order to add a statute-of-limitations defense. The proposed filing is dated October 8, 2026 (docket reference gov.uscourts.cand.442068.89.2).

The underlying suit

EVOX Productions alleges that Stanford researchers copied and shared EVOX's copyrighted car images in two datasets that the researchers compiled. According to the reporting, an AI research paper by Timnit Gebru and Li Fei-Fei, along with its accompanying dataset, is at the center of the suit. The blog notes the limitations defense appears plausible given when the datasets were compiled.

Status

This is a procedural development: Stanford is asking the court's permission (by stipulation) to amend its answer and assert the defense. No ruling on the defense has issued, and no court has found liability against Stanford.
