Suno AI and musings of copyright: An enquiry into fair learning and infringement analysis of generative AI creation

Abstract Music is a language that is spoken between the performer and the listener. Platforms like SUNO AI have enabled even non‐musicians to create music and don the hats of composers by giving few prompts without understanding the language in the first place This has disrupted copyright's traditional understanding of music and infringement. It has also raised a fundamental question, is music a product? or is it a process? The Authors of this paper have analysed the quandary by creating ‘music’ using SUNO AI, and by performing infringement analysis of the created song through another AI platform MIPPIA to understand the complex terrain of infringement analysis of generative AI. Through this paper, the Authors have examined whether the training of AI platforms constitute copyright infringement especially in the case of musical copyright.

Abstract

Abstract Music is a language that is spoken between the performer and the listener. Platforms like SUNO AI have enabled even non‐musicians to create music and don the hats of composers by giving few prompts without understanding the language in the first place This has disrupted copyright's traditional understanding of music and infringement. It has also raised a fundamental question, is music a product? or is it a process? The Authors of this paper have analysed the quandary by creating ‘music’ using SUNO AI, and by performing infringement analysis of the created song through another AI platform MIPPIA to understand the complex terrain of infringement analysis of generative AI. Through this paper, the Authors have examined whether the training of AI platforms constitute copyright infringement especially in the case of musical copyright.
