- Anthropic is facing a class-action lawsuit over its premium Claude Max AI subscription plans.
- Plaintiff Karl Kahn alleges that the Max 5x and Max 20x tiers provide less usage than advertised.
- The lawsuit claims Anthropic misled customers by not clearly explaining how usage is measured.
- Kahn seeks damages, restitution, injunctive relief, and class certification on behalf of U.S. subscribers.
- The complaint argues that a lack of transparency makes it difficult for consumers to verify promised usage.
- The lawsuit follows user criticisms about usage limits and safeguards in Anthropic's new AI models.
- Anthropic has not responded to the allegations, and similar premium plans are marketed by other AI companies.
