Munich Regional Court stops Suno using GEMA-protected music

https://www.juve-patent.com/cases/munic ... ted-music/

TLDR Suno's overfitting on existing music and reproducing it in its outputs, which would also be forbidden for humans. Rare good lawsuit imo

For copying that occurred during training in the US, the court stated that US copyright law applies. The court found that the copies and outputs were not protected by the US fair use doctrine. It distinguished this case from the Bartz and Kadrey decisions in the US, where courts found AI training to be fair use largely because the original training materials were not reproduced for users in the outputs. By contrast, in the GEMA against Suno case simple prompts led to outputs that were substantially similar to the original musical works.

Honestly, such should be something people should be able to do for personal fun and not added to the general map used for all. Any image sent for general use should be approved by google with confirmation that it is real.

There is the watermark and SynthID already, afaik.

I feel like the main problem is people being gullible and not checking their facts.
