About this case
Independent musicians, including Sam Kogon, Magnus Fiennes, and the band Directrix, allege that Google used their songs to train its Lyria 3 music-generation framework without authorization. The proposed class action is ongoing in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, where Google has filed a motion to dismiss arguing that YouTube’s terms of service granted a license covering the alleged conduct.
