Independent Artists are a collective of creators who have publicly challenged the practices of major technology firms regarding the usage of their creative output in artificial intelligence development. They are involved in a dispute concerning the Lyria AI music generator, alleging that Google unlawfully trained the model on their copyrighted works without obtaining explicit consent, licensing, or providing compensation. This group maintains that YouTube terms of service do not provide a valid legal basis for the unauthorized training of generative AI models on their intellectual property.
