The proliferation of AI-generated music has been a common problem among popular music streaming services in recent years. Much to the chagrin of users, these tracks have been invading recommendations. YouTube Music recently introduced AI labels to bring some much-needed transparency to the matter. Spotify, on the other hand, has taken a much stronger approach to the issue.
