headline: Elvis Presley and Eminem rights holders sue Suno over alleged copyright infringement

Suno, a Massachusetts-based AI music generative platform, is again amid lawsuits. This time, the complaint comes from the rights holders of two music legends – Elvis Presley, aka the King of Rock and Roll, and Eminem, aka the Rap God. The plaintiffs

problem_evidence: the damages could top $50 million, according to the lawsuit | alleged that the AI company stole their copyrighted works and used them to train its AI music generator | The 51-page complaint claims Suno let users generate tracks that imitate Presley’s voice
quick_read: Eight Mile Style, the company behind Eminem's early hits, and a group of Elvis Presley rights holders sued Suno on Friday in the Northern District of California. They allege the Massachusetts-based AI music platform trained its generator on their copyrighted works without permission. The Presley complaint says damages could top $50 million.

The Presley suit, brought by Elvis Presley Enterprises, Authentic Brands Group and Raleigh Music Publishing, invokes Tennessee's 2024 ELVIS Act, which protects voice, image and likeness from unauthorised commercial use. Suno denies the allegations and says it does not allow prompts for specific artists' names and songs.

The cases add to a run of music-industry litigation against Suno. Warner Music Group, Universal Music Group and Sony Music sued earlier. Universal later settled, while the Sony case and another remain ongoing, so how courts treat AI training on copyrighted music is still unresolved.
limitation: The claims are allegations in newly filed complaints; Suno denies them and no court has ruled.
tag: Evidence-backed problem
key_points: Both suits were filed Friday in the Northern District of California by the same legal team, led by attorney Richard Busch. | Eight Mile Style, behind Eminem's early hits, alleges Suno copied its songs without permission. | The 51-page Presley complaint says Suno let users generate tracks imitating Presley's voice, and the damages could top $50 million. | Plaintiffs in the Presley case are Elvis Presley Enterprises, Authentic Brands Group and Raleigh Music Publishing, citing Tennessee's 2024 ELVIS Act. | Suno says it screens uploaded audio and lyrics with third-party providers and prohibits unauthorised use of an artist's work. | The same Authentic Brands Group sued Anthropic last month, alleging it used 274 Presley songs to train its models.
rundown: The lawsuits say examples of AI-generated songs mimic Eminem's lyricism and Presley's sound. The Presley complaint says Elvis's identity was stolen, stored on servers and used by Suno to make money, and says the next Elvis will not pick up a guitar.

Suno's spokesperson said the company exists to help people create new, original music, not to trade on anyone's name or likeness. It said it does not allow prompts for specific artists' names and songs and works with third-party providers to screen uploaded audio files and lyrics.

Earlier suits by Warner Music Group, Universal Music Group and Sony Music targeted Suno's AI training. Universal later settled its suit, while other cases continue. Authentic Brands Group also sued Anthropic last month over 274 Presley songs.
