This article has been imported from chorus.fm for discussion. All of the forum rules still apply. Ed Newton-Rex, writing for Music Business Worldwide: First up, it’s worth saying that I don’t think DSPs should ban all AI music. There are clearly good use-cases for AI in music creation; if training data is licensed, these use-cases are worth supporting, at least in my book. (I do think a music streaming service will emerge that does explicitly reject all AI music, as Cara has done in the image space. And it will probably do well. But there are good reasons for most DSPs not to take such a blanket approach.)As table stakes, DSPs should follow the example of other media platforms – Instagramand TikTok, for example – and label content that is generated by AI.That way, music fans can at least choose what they listen to, and, therefore, what they support. Require uploaders to label AI music they upload, and introduce a post-upload moderation process for tracks that slip through the cracks. This is perfectly feasible. You hope that most uploaders will be honest – in general, people tend to prefer to be – and, for those who aren’t, there are a number of third-party systems that can detect AI music with a high degree of accuracy. more Not all embedded content is displayed here.

We're in the post-apocalypse of the industry. I often laugh at how many hours I spent as a kid working my ass off to hone my craft only for bullshit like this to come in and render talent (mostly) obsolete.
Please God let Apple Music just ban Ai music so I have yet another talking point about why it's better than Spotify lol
I'm all for Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal banning AI music. Let there be a new service called "ShitifAI" that can be nothing but AI generated music.
New I'm torn about AI-generated music. On one hand, I think it's cool that tech can create music that sounds like it was made by humans. On the other hand, I worry that it could replace human artists and make their work less valuable.
If already is, and it’s moving faster than you think:/ Not sure this will be easily detectable. And now the noise floor rises!!!!
