Deezer peddles AI detector to rivals for tagging 13.4 million robot riffs—because fighting fake music floods with more AI is peak tech synergy
Deezer, a music streaming service, has announced that it is making its AI music detection tool available to other companies. The tool, which was launched last year, uses artificial intelligence to identify, tag, and exclude AI-generated music from algorithmic recommendations. This move is part of Deezer's efforts to prevent fraudulent actors from stealing royalties from real artists through mass-produced AI-generated music. Since its launch, the tool has identified and tagged over 13.4 million AI songs, despite the growing number of AI-generated tracks. By opening up its tool to other platforms, Deezer aims to help the music industry combat copyright infringement and ensure that artists receive fair compensation for their work. The move is significant, as it highlights the increasing importance of AI detection in the music industry, and Deezer's tool is now available for businesses to purchase and use, starting immediately.
