Music artists represented by Warner Music Group and Sony Music deepfake (Nov 2025)

Warner Music Group (WMG), along with other music giants like Sony Music, sued AI music firms Suno and Udio for allegedly profiting from copying existing songs and producing tracks indistinguishable from real artists' work, claiming it constituted 'wholesale theft'. The platforms allow users to create music based on simple descriptions. The legal action was initiated due to concerns that these platforms were using AI to create music that infringes on the copyrights and likenesses of real artists.
