Spotify to label AI music personas and exclude tracks from personalized recommendations

Spotify artists will be able to disclose whether they're an AI persona. Otherwise, Spotify will review profiles and label profiles themselves.

The streaming giant says the move will give listeners more transparency as AI-generated music becomes harder to identify.

Today, Spotify has announced a new label for AI artists. It's called "AI Persona", and it's meant to signal to listeners that an artist's identity may be AI-generated and "does not represent a real person", the company says. This will begin appearing in mid-September. Interestingly, this will not only be applied to artist profiles that self-disclose as AI Personas, but Spotify will also add it to other "relevant profiles", because it's "focused on elevating music from authentic artists building careers in music". By default, anything created by these AI Personas will be excluded...

It said the AI Persona badge ‘signals to listeners that an artist’s identity may be AI-generated and does not represent a real person’.

Spotify wants to help users know when they are listening to real, human artists.

Spotify is introducing AI Persona badges to distinguish AI-generated artist identities from human artists on its platform. The labels will be based on artist disclosures as well as Spotify’s own profile reviews. Users will see the badges across artist pages, Search and playlists from mid-September. Spotify will also keep labelled profiles out of editorial, algorithmic and personalised recommendations unless users follow them. The move expands Spotify’s existing measures for artist verification, AI credits, track information and protection against incorrectly attributed releases.

AI will be identified by the music app.

Spotify will also review ‌profiles whose public identity appears to ​represent photorealistic AI-generated imagery

Music streaming service Spotify has announced it is introducing a feature that will enable listeners to see if an artist is AI-generated.

The move comes amid growing concern across the music industry over AI-generated content overwhelming streaming catalogues.

The human creators behind AI-generated profiles are encouraged to voluntarily identify themselves. If they don’t, the streaming platform says it has a plan to catch them.

The new label, which will begin to be applied next month, is an effort by the streaming service to be more transparent about A.I.-generated music on its app.

Spotify will begin labeling AI-generated artist identities with "AI Persona" badges and exclude their music from editorial, algorithmic, and personalized recommendations unless users explicitly follow them. The company says the designation applies to whether an artist profile represents a real person, not whether AI was used to make the music, and will allow appeals for mislabeling. TechCrunch reports: While Spotify will allow artists to identify themselves as AI Personas, the company says it won't rely on self-disclosure alone. It will also review artist profiles and identify those where the artist's name and imagery appear to represent photorealistic AI-generated identities. Spotify said it will begin its review with profiles that have met pre-defined audience thresholds to ensure the more listened-to artists are covered first. Once labeled, the AI Persona badges will appear on the artist's profile in the banner and the About section, in Search, and on track rows across playlists. By default, Spotify won't include AI Personas in its editorial or algorithmic recommendations, nor will it add AI Personas' music to users' personalized recommendations -- unless they happen to follow an AI Persona. Only users can choose to follow an artist, so it's an explicit signal that the user wants to hear more music from that person or group. Spotify wrote in its announcement that, "while we believe all artists have creative choice in determining how they present themselves, Spotify's programming is focused on elevating music from authentic artists building careers in music." "Although there's a broad spectrum in how artists use AI as a creative tool, the question of whether a profile represents an actual human is one where Spotify can help make a clear determination. This badge is about the artist's public identity, not about how the music was made," the company said. Read more of this story at Slashdot.
