their artificial intelligence systems on music protected by copyright, including acts like The Beatles and Michael Jackson. \u201cThis is the largest IP theft in human history,&#8221;  ICMP director <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> John Phelan tells <a

hyperbole. We are seeing tens of millions of works being infringed daily.\u201d\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            The report was created over the course of two years. ICMP says its contents, which include &#8220;publicly available registries, open-source repositories of training content, leaked materials, research papers and independent research by AI experts,&#8221; show tech companies illegally using the work of millions of artists and songwriters at a \u201cglobal and highly extensive scale.&#8221;\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            Within the report, the ICMP has assembled numerous allegations of infringement, from lyrics to album art to music itself. Numerous AI companies, including music generators Udio and Suno, are accused of lifting music from <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a> without a licence according to previously private datasets. The report also claims that Microsoft&#8217;s Copilot and Google&#8217;s Gemini generated lyrics copying well-known songs like Bob Dylan\u2019s \u201cKnockin\u2019 On Heaven\u2019s Door\u201d and Childish Gambino\u2019s \u201cThis Is America.&#8221; Numerous chatbots are also said to have &#8220;admitted&#8221; to being trained on copyright-protected work. Several other companies, including Deepseek, OpenAI, and Midjourney, are also named in the report.\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            \u201cDespite their public claims that they\u2019re not training upon copyright-protected works, we\u2019ve caught many of them [tech companies] red-handed,\u201d Phelan tells <i>Billboard<\/i>. &#8220;Aside from amounting to breaches of copyright laws and often contract laws, this is often done despite the music sector\u2019s consistent and clear statements that licenses are both required and available for legal AI training and GenAI.\u201d\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            Phelen says that the ICMP will continue gathering evidence and share what it has with the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ropriate legal teams. \u201cThe future needs to be one of \u2018license or desist.&#8217;\u201d\n          <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">Jordan Darville<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
