00:00 Google was hit with a wide-ranging lawsuit alleging the tech giant scraped
00:10 data from millions of users without their consent and violated copyright
00:15 laws in order to train and develop its artificial intelligence products. The
00:20 proposed class-action suit against Google, its parent company Alphabet and
00:24 Google's AI subsidiary DeepMind, was filed in federal court in California. The
00:30 complaint alleges Google has been secretly stealing everything ever
00:34 created and shared on the Internet by hundreds of millions of Americans and
00:39 using this data to train its AI products such as its chatbot, BARD. The complaint
00:45 also claims that Google has taken virtually the entirety of our digital
00:50 footprint including creative and copywritten works to build its AI
00:54 products. Google officials call these claims in the suit baseless.
