(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Hyo-Seok Lee = Victims who claim that personal information was leaked in the process of developing and servicing an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot’Iruda’ started a full-fledged class action procedure.
According to the IT industry on the 22nd, about 300 people will first participate in the’Iruda Personal Information Leakage Damage Case’ class suit.
On the lawsuit recruitment page of the joint lawsuit platform’Angry People’, 286 people applied for it as of 6 pm the previous day.
Law Firm Taerim, the legal representative of the lawsuit, said, “First of all, the application will be closed, and additional recruitment will be reviewed later.”
The victim’s side submitted an application for preservation of evidence against Scatterlab in the Seoul Eastern District Law the day before.
They asked the court for judgment that Scatter Lab should preserve the database (DB) built by users’ KakaoTalk conversation as evidence of this case.

Scatter Lab collected KakaoTalk conversations of users with’The Science of Love’ and’Text@’, a love analysis app, and created an AI chatbot’Achieve’.
After collecting about 10 billion KakaoTalk conversations, 100 million of them were collected and used as Eruda’s DB.
The victims’ side applied for preservation of 10 billion original KakaoTalk DBs and 100 million Eruda DBs as evidence.
Scatter Lab is currently under investigation by the Personal Information Protection Committee regarding the suspicion of personal information leakage, and has announced that it will destroy the deep learning model and 100 million Eruda DBs after the investigation.
The victim’s hastily filed an application for the preservation of evidence because it is judged that if Scatterlab damages or destroys the database, it may be difficult to prove the damage afterwards.
Applications for preservation of evidence are usually made by the court within a week or so.
However, in this case, similar precedents are rare, so the judge may open a deadline for interrogation and take procedures such as hearing the position of Scatter Lab.
The victims will first preserve the evidence as much as possible through the court, and will file a lawsuit for damages according to the results of the government investigation.
