Artificial Intelligence class actions are no longer a distant possibility – they are a present reality and are here to stay. Importantly, AI tools are being used across a variety class actions – meaning, regardless of the type of class action, AI tools are being leveraged by the plaintiffs’ bar at every stage of class action litigation, making every class action an “AI class action.” Insurers, automakers, and retailers have already found themselves in the crosshairs, facing claims primarily linked to the privacy implications of AI. As the legal landscape continues to evolve, new industries will inevitably become targets, and fresh theories of liability will emerge.
Alston & Bird and Cornerstone Research delve into the cutting-edge world of AI class actions, exploring:
- Plaintiffs’ theories of liability arising out of corporations’ use of AI tools
- The defense of AI class actions
- Attorneys’ use of AI tools in prosecuting and defending AI class actions, including the use of AI for discovery, to address the Rule 23 criteria, and in classwide damage models
- The impact of AI on class action settlements and fraudulent claims
