Deezer to Introduce Toggle Feature Allowing Users to Filter Out AI-Generated Music
Streaming service Deezer is developing a feature that will allow users to filter out AI-generated music from their experience. The toggle, expected before year-end, would remove such tracks and related content from search results based on user demand. CEO Alexis Lanternier cited growing concerns over the rise of AI music, noting it now accounts for more than 50% of daily uploads—up from 10% last year—with an average of 90,000 AI-generated songs uploaded each day. Deezer has already implemented AI-detection tools and reported user interest in filtering such content. A survey found that around 45% of users wanted the ability to exclude AI music. Other platforms like Bandcamp have banned AI tracks entirely while Tidal no longer monetizes them, with Spotify opting for tagging instead. The move reflects broader industry efforts to address concerns over authenticity and creator rights in an increasingly AI-driven content landscape.
