YouTube Music labels songs created mainly with AI. The label appears when playing and explains the role AI played. Labels declare it; if not, YouTube can detect it.
The announcement does not say those tracks will be recommended or paid less. Deezer removes them from recommendations, TIDAL stops paying royalties and Spotify excludes them by default.
According to Deezer and Ipsos, 97% cannot distinguish AI music and 80% want labels.
