Coming soon to Apple Music: A special label for songs created by artificial intelligence
Apple has announced a new update to its popular streaming service, Apple Music. Soon, listeners will be able to know if the song they are hearing was created with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) technology.
The company will begin adding a warning label or special marker to songs where a significant portion, such as the melody or the vocal recording, was generated by generative platforms. These tools, such as Suno or Udio, allow users to create entire pieces of music with the click of a button.
The goal of this move is to increase transparency for listeners. As the use of artificial intelligence in the music industry becomes more common, technology companies are trying to help the public distinguish between human-made works and those created by a computer.
This change is also relevant to users in Israel, as Apple Music is one of the most popular music services in the country. Israeli listeners will now be able to more easily identify the source of the songs they listen to throughout the day.
As of now, it is unclear exactly when the new labels will appear on all songs, but this is a significant step by Apple toward a new era in the global music industry.
