Here’s what made Spotify remove thousands of AI-made songs

Artificial intelligence (AI) is gaining popularity. From creating articles and images to songs, generative AI has seen increased usage online. Recently, the music industry witnessed an uproar as AI bots use songs to train themselves and churn out music that pretty much sounds like it is coming from popular artists. These AI-generated songs have popped up on various streaming platforms like Spotify. The Swedish company is removing tens of thousands of AI-generated songs from the platform.

According to a report by The Financial Times, Spotify has removed 7% of songs created by the AI music startup Boomy. This percentage amounts to “tens of thousands” of songs and the company is also ramping up efforts to keep such incidents in check.
