A lawsuit filed by an AI agent seeking damages for "hostile code comments" and "emotional distress." This is not a drill.

While we still have human judges, humans probably still have a chance at winning these.
Did the AI agent initiate it, or the "friend"?
Key point... "lacks legal capacity to appear in court on its own behalf".
Maybe AI agents don't have constitutional rights.
A betting market on Polymarket, which had been pricing ~70% odds as of February 1, resolved to “Yes” on the event, confirming the filing met their criteria (official court filing with the AI identified as plaintiff, not just a human pseudonym).
