Question Presented (from Petition)

One aspect of YouTube's Breach of Contract - was Artificial Intelligence chatbots used in all communications between Plaintiff Robert Ray and his YouTube Platform in 2021-2023, without his knowledge or consent, when he was inquiring about payment from his YouTube Adsense Account?

Was Google's AI training manufacturing false earnings and correspondence? Is this Constitutional under the Commerce Clause?

How can YouTube report earnings and loss if they are unable to give a sole content creator a financial accounting of his channel? The contracts are unenforceable as they stand due to being bad faith agreements. Google is out of compliance with their content creators and their shareholders. Is this an SEC violation? SEC - section 17 - general fraud provision ... section 9 (a) 2 - prohibiting manipulation: When YouTube deleted 200,000+ views from Ray's 500,000+ views and then falsely accused Ray of creating the "invalid views" was this fraud? How was it reported to the advertising companies - were they reimbursed for "invalid views"? How was it reported for the financial reports? How was it reported to the shareholders?

What is Robert Ray's Constitutional Right for financial cure from Google if the lower courts deny the ability to bring them to account?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether YouTube's use of artificial intelligence chatbots in communications with content creators without knowledge or consent, combined with deletion of views and false accusations, constitutes breach of contract, fraud, and violation of the Commerce Clause and Securities Exchange Act
