"Artificial intelligence (AI) text and image generation tools have now been
around for a while, but in recent weeks, apps for making AI-generated music
have reached consumers as well.
Just like other generative AI tools, the two products – Suno and Udio (and
others likely to come) – work by turning a user’s prompt into output. For
example, prompting for “a rock punk song about my dog eating my homework” on
Suno will produce an audio file (see below) that combines instruments and
vocals. The output can be downloaded as an MP3 file.

The underlying AI draws on unknown data sets to generate the music. Users have
the option of prompting the AI for lyrics or writing their own lyrics, although
some apps advise the AI works best when generating both.
But who, if anyone, owns the resulting sounds? For anyone using these apps,
this is an important question to consider. And the answer is not
straightforward."
