Artificial intelligence music company Suno has pushed back against a class-action lawsuit filed by Americana singer Jason Isbell, asking the court to dismiss the case.

In its first major response, Suno argued that its practices are entirely lawful. The company maintained that there is nothing unlawful about invoking artist names simply to describe musical genres.
