Hi @BomberBobB,

 

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community, and welcome!

 

Unfortunately, there isn’t a currently a way to prevent AI-generated "music" from showing up in playlists, such as those that are Made for you by Spotify.

 

However, there's a relevant Live Idea in the Idea Exchange for marking AI-generated songs as such and being able to filter them out entirely. If it’s something you’re interested in, I’d recommend adding your +VOTE to the idea. The more votes an idea gets, the likelier it is that Spotify will implement it, and you can read more about how feedback on ideas reaches Spotify here.

 

Feel free to also Subscribe to the idea by clicking the three dots next to its title; that way, you can be sure to be informed of any relevant updates.

 

Let me know if you have any other questions, and have a good day!

Hi, you may really lose clients by not permitting users to filter PFC. Just in my friends and colleagues there is a dozen of angry clients, and some already closed there accounts...

**bleep** Spotify and your inability to hide AI content despite millions of users wanting this functionality.

Having to ID the songs to avoid playing them is not a solution. I like the Spotify generated Playlists but will not use that feature if you're going to insert this and make me hunt it down to remove it.
