The music industry is suing 2 hot AI startups. They’ve invoked Taylor Swift in their defense

When the buzzy music startup Suno first launched its AI-based music-creation tool a few months ago -- one that allows users to turn simple text prompts into highly-polished, professional songs -- I was one of the many users right away who had a field day with it. Among my early audio creations, for example, was a banger of a reggaeton track that I sent to BGR's editor-in-chief; appropriately, Suno titled it "Suave CEO." I also prompted Suno to create a cumbia track for a friend of mine who lives in Argentina.
