A lawsuit filed by a former employee alleges that AI startup Clarifai's computer systems were compromised by one or more people in Russia, potentially exposing technology used by the US military. The lawsuit says Clarifai learned of the breach last November, but that Clarifai's CEO and other executives did not promptly report it to the Pentagon.
