Deezer grapples with AI-saturated uploads as 75k AI tracks upload daily

Deezer reports AI-generated music has surged to about 75,000 tracks per day (over 2 million per month), making up 44% of all new uploads, while AI streams remain only 1-3% of total plays and about 85% of those are fraudulent and demonetized; Deezer has stopped storing hi‑res AI tracks, expanded platform-wide AI detection (and licensed the tech to others), and says it can identify 100% of AI content from leading models, having tagged over 13.4 million AI tracks in 2025, as industry debates how to protect artists’ rights and ensure transparency, with peers like Apple Music and Spotify pursuing disclosure standards rather than detection.

"Musicians Unite Against AI Threats to Creativity and Artists' Rights"

Over 200 musicians, including Billie Eilish, Nicki Minaj, and Stevie Wonder, have signed an open letter demanding protections against the predatory use of artificial intelligence (AI) that mimics human artists. The letter, issued by the Artist Rights Alliance, calls for technology companies to pledge not to develop AI tools that undermine or replace human songwriters and artists. This comes amid industry-wide pushback against the use of generative AI in music, with concerns over ethical and legal issues surrounding copyright infringement and labor rights. Legislation has been introduced to protect musicians from having their vocal likeness generated by AI for commercial purposes, but the debate over the permissible use of AI in music continues.
