"Innocent until proven guilty" is a criminal court concept. This would be a civil suit. Those use different standards, like "preponderance of the evidence". I agree that if the claimant had to prove the AI system is violating employment law that that would be a hard bar to clear, but showing on the preponderance of the evidence is something that would have me a lot more nervous if I was on the receiving end of the lawsuit.

This is a highly general answer to a complicated topic; my main point is more that this is not going to be held to the standard of "beyond reasonable doubt", which would be hard to meet.
