Warner Music Group and AI company Suno have reached an agreement that will pay artists and songwriters, resolving a recent legal dispute between them.
Suno is a platform where you can type in a description, and it will generate a song for you. However, last year, several music labels, including Warner Music Group, filed a lawsuit against Suno, claiming the company illegally used copyrighted music to develop its AI technology.
Suno, a company based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is updating its platform next year. These changes include releasing new music models with licensing agreements and limiting how many songs users can download. Specifically, free users won’t be able to download any songs they create. While paid users will have download limits, they can pay extra to download more.
Suno announced that artists signed to Warner Music Group (WMG) can now allow their image, voice, name, and music to be used in AI-created songs, potentially creating new income opportunities for them, according to a recent blog post.
WMG CEO Robert Kyncl announced a new partnership with Suno, calling it a win for creators and fans alike. He explained that as Suno grows quickly in both users and earnings, WMG is working with them to develop AI models that will generate more revenue and create exciting new experiences for music lovers.

Warner Music Group and AI startup Udio have reached an agreement and will work together to develop a new service for creating music using artificial intelligence.
WMG wouldn’t share details about how much money was involved in the settlement or which of their artists are participating. Someone from Suno directed the New York Times to a blog post, but that post also didn’t include any financial information.
In a blog post on November 20th, Kyncl stated that his company will only work with AI partners who agree to use officially licensed music. He emphasized that these agreements will fairly value musical contributions and that artists and songwriters will have the option to approve or deny the use of their identity – including their name, image, voice, and likeness – in songs created with AI.
Suno, an AI music creation platform, reports almost 100 million users. The company recently raised $250 million in funding from investors like Menlo Ventures, which values Suno at $2.45 billion.
According to Suno CEO Mikey Shulman, the collaboration with Warner Music Group will provide a more comprehensive and enhanced experience for music fans.
According to Shulman, by working together, we can improve all aspects of music – from its creation to how people enjoy and share it.
Suno has purchased Songkick, a platform for finding music and concerts, from Warner Music Group. The details of the deal weren’t made public.
Last week, Warner Music Group settled its lawsuit with AI company Udio, reaching a mutually agreeable resolution.

The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has announced that major record labels are suing AI companies Suno and Udio, claiming they illegally used copyrighted songs.
