Sony, Universal, Warner sue over AI music copyright violations

The world's biggest record labels are suing two artificial intelligence start-ups over alleged copyright violation in a potentially landmark case.

Suno, which is based in Massachusetts, released its first product last year and claims more than 10 million people have used its tool to make music. It released its app to the public in April, achieving near-instant fame for being the tool used to create "BBL Drizzy" - a parody track related to the feud between the artists Kendrick Lamar and Drake.In the past, AI firms have argued that their use of the material is legitimate under the fair use doctrine, which allows copyrighted works to be used without a licence under certain conditions, such as for satire and news.

But in the complaints, which were filed in federal court in Massachusetts and New York, the record labels say the AI firms are simply making money from having copied the songs.
