Spotify to Identify AI-Generated Artists with New Badge

Spotify is implementing a new policy to label artists who are AI-generated. A new 'AI Persona Badge' will be applied to profiles that appear to represent AI-generated identities, using elements like names and imagery. These AI-identified artists will also be excluded from personalized recommendations on the platform. Originally reported by Consequence of Sound.
