YouTube sticks new labels on AI-generated songs

YouTube is introducing a "Made with AI" label for tracks that were "altered or fully generated" using AI, following a similar approach to its existing AI labels on videos. The label does not cover all AI use in music, but applies to significant cases such as "using a generative model to create the composition and vocals." YouTube's rules for music partners require disclosure of generative AI use, and the platform says it may use "other signals" to identify AI-generated songs when disclosure is missing. The label is rolling out starting today in the YouTube Music app and will expand to the main YouTube app later. Listeners can tap the label on the player page to see more information, part of YouTube's effort with music partners to give listeners clarity about the songs they hear. The move follows Spotify's voluntary AI label and reports of an AI tag coming to Apple Music, while Deezer added an AI-track filter and Bandcamp banned AI music outright
