Spotify is adding a 'Verified' badge to help users identify human artists, distinguishing them from AI-generated content. The badge will feature 'Verified by Spotify' text and a green checkmark for artists who meet specific authenticity criteria, such as linked social accounts and consistent listener activity.

Deezer reports that 44% of songs uploaded daily to its platform are AI-generated, with nearly 75,000 AI-generated tracks uploaded each day. Despite this surge, consumption of AI-generated music remains low at 1-3% of total streams, with 85% of these streams identified as fraudulent and demonetized.
