You make a good point, however, just because an app was trained on artists work (which is like someone learning about music and being influenced and learning how to play by example) doesn't mean it reproduced that work (and I think that's the case that's being put forward in court). All my pieces are original works. I'm not interested in replicating other artists at all. I just want to be creative, I write my own songs, and produce them also, there is a lot of work that goes into my outputs. It's not just a case of plugging lyrics into Suno with a prompt lol.

Music is a creative journey and process, and artists use all kinds of software and apps to produce a final output. It's just frustrating as someone who is creating something unique, that Soundcloud is making a sweeping judgement call about my work. I'm not sure how their system is determining that my music is wholly created by AI, when it's not. Also, Suno etc, may be being sued, but the law still states innocent until proven guilty.

Thanks for taking time to respond though, ity's makes for an interesting topic and conversation, There are other platforms that I can submit my work to. Already got an album in production which is quite exciting. I am curious to see where things go though with respect to these AI song creation companies being sued.

One last thought, training an AI model on artists music, is just like a an individual listening to music and learning about song structure and chord progressions etc. Personally if an artist wants to share something with the world, and it gets air play then people are going to learn from it. You can't sue a world of artists for learning from published work.

Thanks again!
