Spotify purged 50 million AI-generated tracks from its recommendation systems to improve content quality for listeners. The music streaming service also identified thousands of profiles as AI Personas.
These AI Personas are excluded from automated recommendations unless a listener chooses to follow their specific profile. Thousands of artists have joined a program that allows them to screen songs using their names.
Data shows AI-generated songs are 10 times less likely to reach the 1,000-stream threshold required to earn royalties. YouTube Music joined Apple Music and Tidal in implementing labels for tracks powered by artificial intelligence.
Tidal pledged to block any monetization for songs enabled by AI on its platform. More than 40% of long-form content on LinkedIn is generated by AI.
Approximately 30% of long-form posts on X and Medium are also produced by AI. LinkedIn launched a button for users to report posts that "seem like AI slop."
Users engaged the report button over 1 million times during the first two weeks of its release. A team of social media specialists and former journalists was formed by LinkedIn to find authentic posts.
Detection system improvements led to a 40% drop in views for content categorized as AI slop.
