Deezer has revealed that 28% of music uploaded to the streaming platform is fully AI<\/a>-generated.<\/p>\n

This revelation comes as the platform installed an AI-detection tool at the beginning of the year, and in June committed to labelling any song that uses AI with a tag. In a new report<\/a>, Deezer shares the new figures for tracks that use Artificial Intelligence.<\/p>\n

The French\u00a0music streaming<\/a> service said 30,000 tracks created, at least partially, with AI are added to the platform every day, and that 70% of the plays of these songs have been detected and identified as fraudulent.<\/p>\n

The new 30,000 figure is an increase since February,<\/a> when Deezer said around 10,000 AI<\/a>-generated tracks are submitted to the platform daily.<\/p>\n

In January, Deezer reported that roughly 10% of all content delivered to the platform was AI-generated. This figure increased to 18% in April and has now reached a new high of 28%.<\/p>\n

The streaming service aims to flag content that is AI-generated for user transparency, assuring that it is removed from algorithmic recommendations. Deezer also wants to continue developing the capabilities of its AI-detection technology to include deep fake voices.<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing a massive increase during the year, AI music now makes up a significant part of the daily track delivery to music streaming, and we want to lead the way in minimising any negative impact for artists and fans alike,\u201d said Alexis Lanternier, Deezer\u2019s CEO.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur approach is simple: we remove fully AI-generated content from algorithmic recommendations, and we don\u2019t include it in editorial playlists. This way, we ensure the impact on the royalty pool remains minimal while providing a transparent user experience. And most importantly, we continue to fight fraudulent activity, which is the main driver behind uploading fully AI-generated content.\u201d<\/p>\n

Back in July, a report by 404 Media<\/a> found that AI-generated songs<\/a> are reportedly being uploaded to dead musicians\u2019 profiles on\u00a0Spotify<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This was uncovered when they noticed Blaze Foley \u2013 a country musician best known for his track \u2018Clay Pigeons\u2019 \u2013 had released a new single called \u2018Together\u2019 last week.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The track, which \u201cvaguely sounds like a new, slow country song\u201d, reportedly sounded very different from Foley\u2019s original work, who was murdered\u00a0in 1989.\u00a0Additionally, the single artwork\u00a0appeared to be an AI-generated image of a man singing into a microphone<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 who shares very little resemblance to the real Foley.<\/p>\n

Craig McDonald, who is in charge of distributing Foley\u2019s music and managing his Spotify page via his label Lost Art Records, said the song appeared on the artist\u2019s profile without permission. \u201cI can clearly tell you that this song is not Blaze, not anywhere near Blaze\u2019s style, at all,\u201d he told the publication. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of an AI schlock bot, if you will.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is not the first time AI music has been allowed on Spotify\u2019s platform. The seemingly AI-generated band The Velvet Sundown were reported to have over 400,000 monthly Spotify listeners<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 despite existing for less than a month.<\/p>\n

Speculation continued to emerge after\u00a0Redditors noticed their Instagram account look eerily AI-generated<\/a>.<\/p>\n
