Google faces lawsuit over using YouTube music for AI training

Google is facing a lawsuit from independent musicians who allege the company illegally used their YouTube-uploaded songs to train its Lyria AI music model. In a motion to dismiss the case, Google argues that the musicians granted YouTube a broad license to use their content, as outlined in the platform's terms of service. While Google has not directly confirmed using YouTube uploads for Lyria, executives have previously stated that portions of YouTube content are used to train other AI models like Gemini and Veo, suggesting a similar practice for Lyria.
