news Deezer Tackles 10,000+ AI Tracks Uploaded Daily, Plans to Keep Them Out of Recommendations

[Music Info]

Deezer has revealed a staggering 10,000 fully AI-generated tracks are uploaded to its platform every day, accounting for about 10% of its daily new content. To combat this, the platform is rolling out an AI music detector to identify and manage these uploads effectively.

That’s a lot of AI music. Are we heading for an AI vs. human music showdown?

The AI detector, patented by Deezer last month, can identify tracks generated by major AI tools like Suno and Udio. It’s also being enhanced to detect AI-generated music without needing specific datasets, future-proofing the tool against emerging technologies.

It’s wild to think how fast AI tools are advancing. How do you feel about AI in music creation?

Most of these AI-generated tracks go unstreamed, but Deezer warns the influx dilutes its catalog and could lead to fraud. In response, Deezer plans to tag AI content and exclude it from algorithmic and editorial recommendations to protect artists’ rights and revenues.

This seems like a fair move. But should AI-generated music be entirely separated, or is there room for collaboration?

Deezer CEO Alexis Lanternier believes generative AI can positively impact music but stresses the need for responsible use. The company’s tagging system aims to ensure human artistry isn’t overshadowed by machine-made content.

This sounds great in theory, but do you think the streaming giants will follow suit?
