A German court has ruled that US-based AI music company Suno violated copyright law by using copyrighted music to train its generative AI service. The Munich Regional Court delivered the verdict on Friday in a case brought by German music collection society GEMA. The court found that Suno breached both German and US copyright law. GEMA described the ruling as having global significance, while Suno said it is evaluating its options, including an appeal. The court also directed Suno to pay damages, though the amount has not yet been determined. The decision is seen as one of the first major legal setbacks for an AI music company.
