"These new tagging requirements provide a concrete first step toward the transparency necessary for the industry to establish best practices and policies that work for everyone. Apple Music announced in a March 4 newsletter that it will now require record labels and music distributors to use Transparency Tags to disclose when AI was used to generate a material portion of content across four categories: sound recording, composition, artwork, and music video."
"French streaming service Deezer, which estimated in January that 60,000 completely AI-generated songs are uploaded to its platform every day, has created its own detection tools to tag AI-generated music, which is then removed from algorithmic recommendations and largely demonetized. Bandcamp has fully banned music that is generated wholly or in substantial part by AI and asked users to report violations."
"Spotify announced in September that it was helping develop a standard for AI disclosures in music credits through DDEX, saying that the change was about strengthening trust across the platform, not about down-ranking tracks with such disclosures or punishing artists who use AI responsibly."
Apple Music announced mandatory Transparency Tags requiring record labels and distributors to disclose when AI generates a material portion of music content across four categories: sound recordings, compositions with lyrics, artwork, and music videos. This initiative aims to establish industry transparency standards and best practices. Apple leaves listener choice intact regarding AI-generated music. Spotify similarly developed AI disclosure standards through DDEX to strengthen platform trust without penalizing responsible AI use. Other industry players have implemented stricter measures: Deezer uses detection tools to remove AI-generated music from recommendations and demonetize it, Bandcamp completely bans AI-generated music, and IHeartRadio launched a "Guaranteed Human" initiative prohibiting AI singers and DJs on air.
