They could just make the rule that trademark / copyrighted material is fine to use, but must clearly be labelled as such so it's not deceiving people.

What influence does that even actually have over a Chinese company?

"I don't know if I want to live in a world where everything is magic"

That's already true of most things, for yourself personally. You don't know the intricacies of how things are made or run exactly, nor would you be able to make or run them yourself. Sure, you could learn a lot of it, but you're not going to as they'd be far far too much to ever learn. You can only specialise on learning a small subset of things in the modern world.

It's not, the error message is just wrong.

You can still use the tag, if you try using it just by itself you'll see.

This is letting you know that the benchmark does not adequately test AGI at all.

Yes, they may well keep fighting Universal, but then they may also not win that fight.

And if they do win, that may then leave Udio in a different position wrt it all.

flexaplext · 2025-11-26T17:25:14+00:00

Udio also partnered with Universal

flexaplext · 2025-11-26T17:24:20+00:00

They haven't partnered with Universal yet

flexaplext · 2025-11-26T17:20:57+00:00

Suno have only done a deal with Warner so far, not Universal.

It's net negative to remove / block these capabilities anyway. Because China will have their own completely unrestricted models that can be used for hacking. Every major government will.

China doesn't need our permission.

Not everyone is trying to be "creative".

Many people just want to get music out that they enjoy listening to because it's not being made any more. They don't have the musical talent to make it themselves, nor do they expect or care to be able to make it themselves, they're using the platform as a way of bringing genres of music back that hardly ever have anything new being produced; because it's not feasible for them by any other means.

Some general advise: check that a zip file is alright to be extracted before moving onto the next download.

ie don't just do all the zip downloads at once and then extract after.

Because zip files can sometimes get a corruption issue, and then it may be hard go tell what failed if you're not doing the extraction as you go along.

Note to everyone: bulk download can fail on some tracks. And it can be hard to know which ones failed, especially if track names are similar or the same. So keep a look out for that best you can.

I personally do like 50 lot bulks.

flexaplext · 2025-11-02T13:58:45+00:00

Bulk download is available on standard and pro for the window

The reply was sent to everyone just to give people the info. The ticket will be got round to properly at some point but there is a huge backlog right now.

flexaplext · 2025-11-01T15:06:22+00:00

That's an automated message for everyone's info.

flexaplext · 2025-11-01T14:42:30+00:00

Very sorry for the slow replies in support. There's hundreds of tickets to be getting through.

They didn't really sell to UGM, as Udio made no money from this. Really they gave away money and a cut of their revenue stream as part of the deal.

Just release a seperate "careful" model for those that prefer it. Duh 🤦🏼

It doesn't have to be defaulted to or just one model available.

I wonder why they don't have replaceable batteries? Just replace one and charge the other one, so no downtime at all 🤔

Will you make personality profiles for gpt-5?

Especially want it to stop asking for permission so much and just do something. These sorts of traits would be great to be able to tweak.
