About 18% of songs uploaded to Deezer are fully generated by AI, the French streaming platform said on Wednesday, underscoring the technology's growing use amid copyright risks and concerns about fair payouts to artists.

Deezer said more than 20,000 AI-generated tracks are uploaded on its platform each day, which is nearly twice the number reported four months ago.

Is that a problem? Drake used AI to duo with Tupac in one of his songs, imo as long as it's good music people will listen to it

Edit: I don't mind the downvotes, but let the record show I don't like Drake. But he has good songs, and if people like the music made with AI, I don't see that being a problem

deezer seems to rightfully consider being flooded with lazy AI slop a problem:

Herault added that a detection tool launched in January was helping the company filter fully AI-generated tracks from the algorithmic recommendations for its 9.7 million subscribers.

this is something different from what the article’s talking about, but also that sounds tacky as fuck

Also he did it in his dumbshit feud with Kendrick Lamar - you know, the one which ended with Drake getting the ass-whooping of a fucking lifetime
