Deezer has long been a platform for artists to share their music. Traditionally, new uploads came from musicians expressing their creativity. However, a recent shift has introduced a significant number of AI-generated tracks.
In its latest report, Deezer revealed that 44% of new music uploads are now produced . This change has raised alarms within the industry as many of these tracks are reported as fraudulent and do not generate revenue for artists.
The platform notes that AI tracks constitute only a small percentage of overall streams. Most of these streams are demonetized, leading to financial losses for both the service and legitimate artists. As a result, questions arise about the authenticity of music consumption on streaming platforms.
This development challenges traditional norms in the music industry. Artists are now competing not only with each other but also with machines. The rise of AI-generated content may reshape how music is created and valued in the future.
