@nationsrestaurantnews: McDonald’s is facing a potential class action lawsuit in Illinois over its use of AI to recommend prices. Michael Thomas, who lives in Dekalb, Illinois, has sued the fast-food giant, saying that the company’s use of a price recommendation tool, and its push to force franchisees to use that tool, violates federal antitrust laws because it effectively represents price fixing. McDonald’s in a statement said that “the complaint is filled with inaccuracies and we will vigorously defend against this lawsuit.” “AI does not set menu prices at McDonald’s restaurants. McDonald’s franchisees do. Optional tools are available to franchisees to help them make the best decisions for their businesses and customers, but these tools do not automate, coordinate, or fix pricing in any way.” Head over to NRN.com go read more. #mcdonalds #foodnews #fastfood #nrn
