This corresponds to around 39 percent of all music uploaded to the platform daily. AI music accounts for up to three percent of listening; of that, 85 percent is considered artificial, according to Deezer.
“We know that the majority of AI music is uploaded to Deezer with the intention of committing fraud,” says CEO Alexis Lanternier in a press release.
The French streaming service has developed a tool that detects AI-generated music, which it now wants to sell to other players, while also urging the rest of the industry to be more transparent about the issue.
Deezer has just under ten million paying users. Market leader Spotify, by comparison, has over 280 million.
