"Suno’s training data includes essentially all music files of reasonable quality that are accessible on the open internet."

"Rather than trying to argue that Suno was not trained on copyrighted songs, the company is instead making a Fair Use argument to say that the law should allow for AI training on copyrighted works without permission or compensation."

I'm reminded of the Blue Man Group's Complex Rock Tour. One of the major themes of the show is the contradiction in terms that is the "music industry." That we tend to think of music as an artistic, ethereal thing that requires talent and inspiration...and yet we churn out pop music the same way we churn out cars and smart phones.
