Apple has been hit with a federal court lawsuit over claims of false advertising regarding its Apple Intelligence features. The suit, filed in US District Court in San Jose, seeks class-action status and damages for customers who purchased iPhones and other devices with promised AI capabilities.
Plaintiffs claim that device owners were misled about the actual performance and utility of Apple Intelligence, which was not delivered as advertised. The lawsuit cites advertisements that created a clear expectation of transformative features upon iPhone release.
The move comes as Apple struggles to bring highly anticipated Apple Intelligence capabilities to market. According to Bloomberg, CEO Tim Cook has lost confidence in AI head John Giannandrea’s ability to execute on product development.
