Pourquoi c'est important
Deezer was the first major streaming service to label AI-generated music and offered its detection technology to others. However, few companies adopted it, leading Deezer to release the tool directly to consumers.
Deezer will now scan your playlists on other streaming platforms to detect AI-generated music.
Deezer was the first of the big streaming services to start labeling AI-generated music. It even offered its tech to other platforms, but it doesn’t seem like it had many buyers.
Qobuz launched its own detection tech, while Apple and Spotify have opted for a voluntary tagging system.
“No other company has followed our lead yet, so we decided to make it possible for everyone to check if their playlists include synthetic music, no matter which streaming platform they use,” Deezer CEO Alexis Lanternier said in a press release. So, since nobody is taking them up on their offer to license its AI detection tech, Deezer is bringing it directly to the masses.
The way it works is you visit Deezer’s AI music detector site, choose your streaming service, and grant Deezer permission to access it. The tool is compatible with 20 different platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud, and YouTube Music. Deezer will then import your playlists, seemingly using Tune My Music, which the company already uses to import your library if you’re switching from a competitor like Spotify. Deezer will then scan the results for AI content, alert you to any hits, and give you the option to share the results.
