AI music generator Suno, which allows users to generate songs via prompts, has lost a copyright infringement lawsuit to German licensing agency GEMA.
In the January 2025 filing, GEMA argued that Suno was using songs to train its AI models without obtaining any licenses or paying the artists.
The decision, handed down on Friday 31 July by the Munich Regional Court, ruled that Suno’s use of the songs was in breach of both the German and US copyright law, and that the AI platform unlawfully obtained, processed and reproduced music that was represented by GEMA.
