Gema wins lawsuit against Suno: Intellectual property abused

A very clear outcome, which in turn follows a fairly impressive presentation of evidence in which Gema beat the AI ​​provider with its own weapons.

Not only is the melody of Helene Fischer almost completely identical, the timbre is also clearly reminiscent of the singer

Gema filed its lawsuit against the AI ​​portal on January 21, 2025. With Suno it is possible to create songs without instruments, other programs or other musical knowledge. Short prompts are sufficient – bullet-point texts that, like other AI assistants, function as stage directions: “Write a hip-hop song about the difficulty of proving possible copyright infringements by AI tools; mid-tempo, retro 90s mood, female voice, thoughtful lyrics.” Press enter, wait a moment, the 90s conscious rap is ready. The more detailed and targeted the specifications are, the closer you get to what you had in mind. The results have often been exorbitantly good for a long time and can hardly be distinguished from man-made music.
