Summary
Udio, an AI music platform, has filed a motion to seal the size of its AI training dataset in the copyright infringement case brought by Sony Music Entertainment. The company argues that revealing this information would allow competitors to build rival products faster and more cheaply.

Hellerstein is presiding over the case.
