- Deezer built a tool to call out AI music — even on rival streaming platforms
Deezer launched a free AI music detection tool that scans playlists on its platform and competitors like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and SoundCloud to identify AI-generated tracks. The tool detects unique audio signals in AI music, with Deezer reporting 44% of new tracks uploaded to its platform are AI-generated but receive minimal streams. The company aims to promote transparency in the music industry as AI-generated content faces declining consumer interest and suspected fraudulent activity.
- Deezer launches an AI music detector for other streaming services
Deezer has launched an AI music detector to check playlists on other streaming platforms for synthetic music. The company was the first major service to label AI-generated music and previously offered its detection technology to competitors, though adoption has been limited. Qobuz now uses its own detection system, while Apple and Spotify rely on voluntary tagging.
