Warner Music signs deal with AI song generator Suno after settling lawsuit
"Robert Kyncl, the chief executive of Warner Music Group, said the deal showed that artificial intelligence could be pro-artist when it is licensed to reflect the value of music. This landmark pact with Suno is a victory for the creative community that benefits everyone, he said. With Suno rapidly scaling, both in users and monetisation, we've seized this opportunity to shape models that expand revenue and deliver new fan experiences."
"As part of the agreement Suno, heralded as the ChatGPT for music, has committed to making changes to its platform to launch new, more advanced and licensed models next year, including putting new limitations on downloads for users. Suno said that only paid-tier subscribers would be able to download its AI music creations, and paid users would also have to pay more for downloads and have a cap on how many they could make."
Warner Music signed a licensing deal with AI song generator Suno after settling a copyright infringement lawsuit. Users will be allowed to create AI-generated songs on Suno via simple text prompts using the voices, names and likenesses of Warner acts that opt in. The agreement requires Suno to launch more advanced licensed models next year and to introduce user download limitations. Only paid-tier subscribers will be able to download AI music creations, with higher fees and caps on download quantities. The new models will phase out existing versions to stem thousands of AI tracks flooding streaming services. Warner is the first major label to partner officially with Suno and recently settled a similar deal with Udio.
