  "account": "Elvis Presley's estate has filed a lawsuit against AI company Anthropic for copyright infringement, alleging that the company used 274 of the singer's songs to train its models without permission. The plaintiffs, Authentic Brands Group, are seeking $150,000 for each of the infringed tracks, totaling $41 million in damages. The lawsuit names several of Elvis's most popular songs, including \"Can't Help Falling in Love,\" \"All Shook Up,\" and \"A Little Less Conversation.\" This case is not the first time Anthropic has faced legal action over the unauthorized use of copyrighted music; earlier this year, Round Hill Music and Suno also sued the AI company for similar violations.",
