Mark / Disable AI Generated Songs

[DerKEKl]

The platform is increasingly flooded with AI-generated songs (especially the Release Radar), making it harder for users to discover authentic, human-created music. To improve the listening experience, Spotify should introduce a clear label for AI-generated songs and provide an option to filter them out entirely.

This might be a really good opportunity for the platform to not only be one of the first (if not, THE first) to give this kind of information about songs and show their overall advancement on music tagging, but also to take a stance about the overall spamming that's been happening to playlists for the past years, especially since 2020-2021.

I do wonder if this system itself would function by the use of IA-based flag or if this would require a human-based analyzing team.

@_Eisen_ sadly that "Don't play this artist" seems to be unavailable on desktop? But works fine on Mobil.

@Spotify: you're wasting a lot of money by paying out AI "Artists". It should be in your interest to get rid of them. 

[LottaOnmyway]

AI hurts real artists. Too many fake songs, so this is important.

[DoomNation]

People use bots not only to create this music, but to upload and play the music too. They are rewarded by way reach and algorithmic plays and steal money from the artist pool and from Spotify itself. AI music isn’t completely bad as long as it’s done for the premise itself and with transparency. There are creative themes that can be done with AI music but there are too many AI artists that pass themselves off as actual artists and they are ruining the whole ecosystem.

AI music should be labelled as such PERIOD.
Either by self-reporting of the uploader and/or usually using AI to detect AI music.
Keep on getting bland AI stuff in my feed, if this keeps on happening I am outta here...
I realise that AI music, self-produced by Spotify or not, is a revenue stream but come on at least be transparent about it Spotify!

[JaggityJag]

100% agree. There must be transparency now regarding AI generated music. A clear sign/stamp of AI generated music making it very clear for the consumer/listener. 

I almost feel like AI music should be in its own platform entirely. It seems massively disrespectful to the work musicians put into making music to add AI alongside them, it makes no sense to me.

Also, is there a difference in profits for AI music or is that making the same as humans? I would assume these AI's don't make any money, right? 

[Setsuki]

Yes please! My Discover Weekly and Release Radar is increasingly flooded by bad AI generated songs. They're very obvious and very much not what I want to listen to. I am finding it really disruptive to my listening experience. If I wanted to listen to AI music, I would head over to Suno where everything there is AI and listen to it. On top of that, real artists are losing revenue over this. I pay money to Spotify because I want the artists I like to at least make something!

[Mackstarr]

Spotify themselves are creating the AI artists. They create thousands and add them to recommended playlists. Every time I click on one of these artists they have thousands of monthly listens but there is no info online about them. Only Spotify can promote these artists with such mediocre music and no visible promotion outside of Spotify. They used to do it with in house producers creating generic ambient or instrumental music. Now they are covering other styles but with Suno generated music.

100% on board with this.  It's musical spam.
