Uber drivers launch European class action over ‘soulless’ and ‘scary’ AI algorithm
Uber drivers in several European nations have filed a class‑action lawsuit claiming the company's AI‑driven pay‑setting tool breaches privacy laws and depresses earnings. The suit describes the algorithm as opaque and harmful, and seeks damages and reforms. If successful, the case could impact thousands of drivers and set a precedent for gig‑economy labor rights in the EU.
