\n\tYouTube Music is introducing labels for AI music on the platform, the streamer announced on Wednesday (Oct. 14).<\/p>\n

\n\tThe new labels will be applied to songs that were \u201ccreated primarily using generative AI,\u201d according to a YouTube Music blog post. That \u201cincludes using a generative model to create the composition and vocals.\u201d The labels will also apply to music content on the main YouTube app.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tThe Recorded Music Industry Wants Labels on AI Music. How Could That Work?\u00a0(FAQ)\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

    \n\tOn YouTube Music, the AI labels will show up directly on the player page while listening to a song in which \u201cAI played a significant role,\u201d the blog post states. When a user taps the label, a menu opens up sharing more information.<\/p>\n

    \n\tThe blog post states that YouTube Music is \u201cteaming up with music partners\u201d and utilizing its own detection tools to identify tracks that are AI-generated, while \u201capplying the same labeling principles already used across YouTube.\u201d In 2024, YouTube unveiled a tool that would require creators to disclose when \u201crealistic content \u2014\u00a0content a viewer could easily mistake for a real person, place, scene, or event \u2014\u00a0is made with altered or synthetic media, including generative AI.\u201d<\/p>\n

    \n\tAccording to YouTube\u2019s previously published disclosure guidelines around AI content, its \u201cMade with AI\u201d label indicates that a video contains content \u201cthat has been meaningfully altered or synthetically generated with Gen AI tools\u201d \u2014\u00a0a requirement that now extends to YouTube Music. The guidelines add that the \u201cMade with AI\u201d label is applied to content that creators manually disclose in the YouTube Studio workflow; content that uses YouTube\u2019s generative AI tools; and content that contains \u201cvalid Content Credentials data indicating the entire video is made with AI.\u201d If creators don\u2019t disclose their use of AI, YouTube has the ability to apply the \u201cMade with AI\u201d label to content on its own.<\/p>\n

    \n\tThe use of AI labels at streamers has been growing over the last several months. In August, Spotify announced that it would be introducing a label for AI-generated artists, music from which will not be included in personalized recommendations on the service. Also in August, Apple Music said it was working on introducing AI labels on the platform for music that content providers disclosed was \u201cmaterially generated using AI\u201d; as Apple Music head Oliver Schusser<\/strong> previously told Billboard<\/em>, the company uses a detector internally to monitor AI content. In July, a coalition of companies representing the recorded music industry, including the IFPI, RIAA and A2IM, also proposed the widespread creation of AI labels for music on streaming services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
