Deezer’s recent experiment, conducted with research firm Ipsos, revealed that the vast majority of listeners struggle to tell AI‑generated tracks from human‑made songs. In a survey of thousands of participants, only a tiny fraction correctly identified all AI songs, while many expressed surprise and discomfort at the results. The findings have sparked debate over transparency, labeling, and the potential impact of AI on the music industry, prompting Deezer and other platforms to consider new policies for AI‑generated content.

Warner Music Group has entered a licensing agreement with AI music creation platform Suno, allowing users to generate songs using the voices, names, images and compositions of artists who opt in. The deal gives participating artists control over how their likenesses are used and promises new revenue streams. WMG also withdrew a lawsuit it had filed against Suno, signaling a shift toward collaborative AI adoption across major record labels. Leer más

Stability AI, the maker of the Stable Diffusion AI art tool, achieved a partial victory in a British High Court case against Getty Images. While the judge ruled that Stability infringed Getty’s trademark by reproducing watermarks, the core claim of secondary copyright infringement was dismissed. The case, the first major AI copyright dispute to reach England’s High Court, failed to establish a clear precedent on whether AI models need permission to train on copyrighted works. Getty continues its fight in a separate U.S. lawsuit, and the decision adds to a growing wave of legal battles between AI firms and creative rightsholders. Leer más

OpenAI is reportedly developing a new AI tool that creates music from text or short audio prompts. The effort involves students from the Juilliard School annotating musical scores, though the school says it is not officially part of the project. The proposed system would let users generate instrumental tracks, background music, or accompaniments tailored to specific moods or tempos. If released, the technology would compete with existing AI music platforms such as Suno and Udio and could trigger additional copyright disputes with record labels, building on OpenAI's earlier experiments with MuseNet and Jukebox.

Universal Music and Warner Music are on the brink of licensing agreements that could reshape how the music industry interacts with artificial intelligence. Talks involve major tech firms such as Google and Spotify, as well as AI startups like Klay Vision, ElevenLabs, and Stability AI. The negotiations focus on how labels will license songs for AI training and generation, with compensation models resembling streaming micropayments. Successful deals would require AI companies to develop tools that track music usage in real time. Leer más
