headline: Suno AI Music Generator Sued Again For Copyright Infringement
dek: Groups that own the music rights to Elvis Presley and Eminem’s tracks filed the latest lawsuits.

problem_reading: Two rights holders, one for Elvis Presley's music and Eight Mil Style for Eminem, filed separate lawsuits alleging Suno's AI generator produced songs that sound like Presley or mimic Eminem's lyrics without a licence.
problem_evidence: Both lawsuits offered examples of songs created through the AI music generator that allegedly sound like Presley or mimic Eminem's lyrics.
quick_read: A group that owns the rights to Elvis Presley's music and Eight Mil Style, a publisher that owns hundreds of Eminem recordings, filed separate lawsuits against AI music generator Suno. Both complaints include examples of Suno-made songs that allegedly sound like Presley or mimic Eminem's lyrics.

The plaintiffs' attorneys said Suno's actions "make human creativity obsolete". Suno told Variety it does not allow "any unauthorized use of an artist's work", prohibits using specific artists' names and songs, and works with third-party companies to screen for potential misuse.

The suits add to Suno's existing legal troubles. Sony Music Entertainment and Universal Music Group jointly sued earlier this year, saying Suno still infringes their copyrighted material with its v6 models, while Warner Music Group dropped its suit for a licensing deal.
limitation: The claims are allegations in newly filed lawsuits, and Suno disputes any unauthorised use of artists' work.
tag: Evidence-backed problem
key_points: Separate lawsuits were filed by the group that owns Elvis Presley's music rights and by Eight Mil Style, a publisher that owns hundreds of Eminem recordings. | The complaints cite Suno-generated songs that allegedly sound like Presley or mimic Eminem's lyrics. | Suno says it prohibits using specific artists' names and songs and works with third-party companies to screen for potential misuse. | Sony Music Entertainment and Universal Music Group earlier this year jointly sued, claiming Suno's v6 models still infringe their copyrighted material. | Warner Music Group dropped its lawsuit against Suno last year and agreed to a licensing deal instead. | The Presley rights group also sued Anthropic, claiming $41 million in damages for allegedly training AI models on the musician's works without permission.
rundown: Variety first reported the new suits, which Engadget summarised. One was filed by the group behind Presley's music rights and the other by Eight Mil Style, which owns hundreds of Eminem recordings. Each gives examples of Suno outputs that allegedly resemble the artists' sound or lyrics.

The plaintiffs' lawyers argued that Suno replicates without a licence, in seconds, what takes human artists years to learn and refine. Suno responded that it bars unauthorised use of artists' work, including prompts using specific artists' names and songs.

The cases sit within a wider set of disputes. Sony and Universal filed a joint suit over Suno's v6 models earlier this year, while Warner chose a licensing deal after dropping its action last year. The Presley rights group has also pursued Anthropic for $41 million over alleged unauthorised training.
