慕尼黑法院驳回合理使用抗辩:认定 Suno 版权侵权
慕尼黑法院裁定 suno 因训练及再现特定歌曲侵犯版权,驳回了其合理使用抗辩。这为欧洲的 ai 训练责任确立了先例。
a munich court ruled in favor of german rights group gema, finding that suno models reproduced specific original elements from training songs, constituting copyright infringement. the court rejected suno's defense that it only stores mathematical patterns, finding that memorization occurred and applying us law to reject fair use protection. the court placed liability solely on suno, stating its model selection and architecture 'substantively determined' the infringing outputs. this ruling contradicts some us precedents like bartz, distinguishing them on the grounds that suno's outputs were 'substantially similar' to the originals. the decision could force ai music companies to alter their architectures or licensing strategies if upheld on appeal.
