A bombshell class action against Eightfold AI—involving giants like Microsoft and Starbucks—claims AI hiring tools may violate the FCRA. If your platform scores applicants behind the scenes, you could face statutory damages and class-action exposure.

Inside this issue:

  • The Discovery Trap: Why your AI research might not be privileged.

  • Open vs. Closed: How "free" AI models leak company secrets.

  • The 2026 Rulings: Latest court updates on AI work-product protection.
