Google suffered another legal setback. First, its case against SerpApi was dismissed.

And now David Greene’s lawsuit against Google was just remanded back to state court. Judge Breyer held the claims were based on “voice likeness” outputs, and not inputs used to train Google’s AI models. Therefore, they were not preempted by the Copyright Act.

Davide Greene is the former host of NPR’s Morning Edition.
