Boies Schiller Flexner has joined the team heading a proposed class action against Meta for allegedly using copyrighted material to train its artificial intelligence product “Llama.”

Plaintiffs include comedian Sarah Silverman, Ta-Nehisi Coates, and Junot Diaz, among other authors, who sued Meta in July 2023, alleging they never gave the company permission to use their copyrighted works in a dataset to train versions of Llama. 

The BSF team representing the plaintiffs includes David Boies, Josh Schiller, Max Pritt, and Jesse Panuccio.

Josh was quoted in Law360 and The Recorder, and Max was quoted in Bloomberg Law.
