(Reuters) -Cloud-computing firm Salesforce was hit with a proposed class action lawsuit by two authors who alleged the company used thousands of books without permission to train its artificial intelligence software.
Novelists Molly Tanzer and Jennifer Gilmore said in the complaint filed on Wednesday that Salesforce infringed copyrights by using their work to train its xGen AI models to process language.
