    Statutory damages for copyright infringement can reach up to $150,000, but there’s no double-dipping.

    Does this mean that, at most, OpenAI would be forced to pay him 150k? That seems irrelevant (to both parties, in fact).

      No. Each work is its own violation. The RIAA showed us that decades ago.

      But if he wins, then every other similar author has a blueprint of how to get some cash… And if the defendants keep doing the action, everyone can file suits again, right?
