Music streaming services—like virtually every other corner of the internet—are awash in AI slop, thanks to the rise of cheaply accessible AI tools and a regulatory void. Now, a coalition of organizations representing musicians and record labels is trying to make it easier for listeners to at least know when a song has been generated by an LLM. Led by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, the group is pushing streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music to adopt a consistent labeling system for identifying songs that were made using AI, according to a Friday report from the Wall Street Journal. The proposed labels would appear to listeners similarly to the label currently used to mark songs containing explicit content. They look a bit like tiles from the periodic table: One of them, designed for tracks generated entirely by AI, has a black background with “AI” written in big, white letters; another, made for songs created by humans who used AI for specific parts of the creative process, has a white background with “ai” in smaller letters. At this point, the coalition is not suggesting the adoption of labels that would mark AI-generated cover art or music videos, according to the WSJ report.
