Almost Half of Daily Uploads Are AI

Deezer says 44% of songs uploaded daily to its service are AI‑generated (about 75,000 tracks per day, >2 million per month). The platform reports low consumption of those tracks (1–3% of streams), flags 85% as fraudulent, and has barred them from recommendations and high‑resolution storage. — If AI content can dominate uploads, platforms will increasingly decide what counts as music, who gets paid, and how discovery works — raising questions about transparency, fraud, copyrights, and infrastructure costs.
