Salesforce Hit With Class Action Over Alleged Illegal Use of AI Training Data

Salesforce is facing a class action lawsuit accusing it of using data without permission to train its AI models.

Plaintiffs allege that the company leveraged copyrighted content and proprietary datasets without adequate licensing or consent. Sending it into legal crosshairs. The complaint argues that Salesforce’s AI features were built on the unlicensed use of others’ intellectual property, seeking damages, injunctive relief, and disclosures about the data sources. If successful, the case could have broader implications for how AI firms source, curate. And use training data in compliance with copyright and privacy laws.
