Warner and the other major record labels sued Suno and its competitor Udio last year, accusing the startups of using copyrighted material in their AI platforms without compensation for artists or the companies. Warner and Universal Music Group NV both settled recently with Udio and also struck deals to collaborate on a new commercial music creation and streaming service.
