ai lawsuit compilation

in my piece "Fancy Autocomplete and You", i referenced the "absolute conga line" of AI-related lawsuits on the horizon. originally, i was just going to add more links to that piece, but said conga line is growing so fast that it would quickly become unwieldy. so i decided to make my own separate page, because i'm just that dedicated to being a hater.

this is not an exhaustive list, because i am one human person, but i'm doing my best.
