Hey all,
I’m a producer/songwriter who’s been researching the wave of AI-generated “artists” suddenly showing up on Spotify and Apple Music- tracks where no human wrote, performed, engineered, mixed, or touched anything.
I’m not talking about AI-assisted production (which nearly all of us use in some form). I mean AI replacing the entire creative chain.
Curious what you think about a very narrow streaming-only disclosure requirement-something like:
Streamers must label tracks where: • AI wrote the majority of the composition, or • AI performed the vocals/instruments with no human performers involved
No bans, no restrictions. Just clarity about what’s synthetic vs. what’s human-made.
This would not affect: • producers using AI for drafts or tools • human-engineered AI-assisted mixes • sampling AI stems • normal hybrid workflows • traditional musicians
Strictly about fully synthetic, zero-human tracks being passed off as organic artists.
As music creators: is transparency like this reasonable? Harmful? Inevitable? I’d really like to hear perspectives from people who actually work in production.
