Out of curiosity, what else has worked (in the court system) to even remotely challenge AI companies?

The closest example to that given in the blog post is the writer’s guild strike:

If we’re workers, then we derive our power from labor rights. The Writers Guild – the only creative workers in world history to have comprehensively beaten AI in their workplace – won their AI fight with a strike:

The Hollywood guilds are able to pursue a limited form of “sectoral bargaining” (where all the workers in a field bargain with all its bosses) called “multi-employer bargaining.” Bosses hate sectoral bargaining, and in 1947 they got it banned outright through the Taft-Hartley Act.
