AI Creates Half of Deezer Songs

Der Spiegel

Deezer now makes most of its songs using artificial intelligence. However, people listen to these AI songs very little. This raises questions about AI’s role in music.

Deezer has started using artificial intelligence to create a large number of new songs. A study showed that 44% of new music on the platform is AI-generated. Despite this, only 1 to 3 percent of all streams are of these AI tracks. This means most listeners still prefer music made by human artists. The company is exploring how AI can be used in music production.
