Spotify is partnering with Sony, Universal and Warner on 'AI Music Products'2025-10-17 19:24 by DanielaTags: Spotify, Sony, AI
Spotify on Thursday announced a series of deals with major record labels to develop new AI products designed to ensure fair compensation and center artists and songwriters in the experience. In partnership with Sony, Universal, Warner, and Merlin, the streamer said it would develop "responsible AI" products that not only respect copyright, but also allow the artists to choose whether they want to allow the use of AI tools. The company didn't delve into the specifics of how the new tools would operate, but the company already offers generative AI experiences for users, including with its AI DJ that plays a personalized selection of songs and others that allow users to request playlists using AI prompts, for instance. Spotify was recently criticized for allowing an AI-generated band’s music to go viral on its service, raising questions about whether the future of music would push human artistry to the side. Last month, the company revamped its AI policy to cut down on spam, particularly users who upload AI content at mass scale, create duplicates, and manipulate the search and recommendations systems. Spotify also said it would adopt the music labeling system DDEX to label when AI was used as part of the music creation process. Read more -here-
