Spotify has removed tens of thousands of songs generated by artificial intelligence (AI) from its platform. The streaming platform has detected a manipulation of the listening around these pieces of music.
Universal Music had recently requested the removal of a rap track imitating, thanks to AI, the voices of artists Drake and The Weeknd. The songs would have benefited from "fake streams", that is to say an artificial increase in the number of listens, in order to inflate the audience of a title and therefore its revenue.
