    Yup. Universal studios got control of Udio through a lawsuit and the only thing they did was slap copyrights on anything generated and stop you from downloading songs on free accounts. No one making the music used to train it got paid.

    These copyright companies want to own it so it benefits shareholders. On top of that, putting a huge entry price on making a “legal” model suits big AI companies just fine since it kills open source models for business use.

    It’s hard to watch. Everyone is being manipulated into bootlicking the copyright industry.
