"Stolen Intellectual Property": German Court Rules Suno Violated Copyright
The AI music generator Suno lost a copyright infringement lawsuit brought by German rights management company GEMA. The Munich regional court ruled on July 31 that Suno used copyrighted songs to train its AI models without licenses or compensation, violating copyright law in Germany and the US. The ruling was described as a strong signal that creativity has value and creators' rights must be respected in the AI era.
