Music streamer Deezer says more than 50% of daily uploads are AI-generated

Deezer最新数据显示，平台每日新增音乐中超过一半竟是AI生成的！这家流媒体音乐服务商追踪发现，去年初AI音乐还只占日上传量的10%，如今已飙升至75,000首，占比超过44%。面对这股AI浪潮，各家平台态度不一：有的直接封杀，有的限制收入，而Deezer则选择清理长期无人问津的AI曲目，并打击靠刷量牟利的行为。通俗来说，现在用AI作曲工具几分钟就能生成一首歌，而且越来越多用户正把这类作品上传到音乐平台。Deezer开发了专门的侦测技术，不仅能识别AI生成内容，还能区分出Suno、Udio等热门AI音乐工具的作品。为了保障真实音乐人的权益，他们甚至把这项技术开放给其他平台使用。对普通听众来说，以后在流媒体上听到的歌曲可能有一半是AI制造的，但平台会通过标记和清理机制帮你分辨。对于独立音乐人，这既是挑战也是机遇——竞争更激烈了，但真正有创意的人类作品反而更容易被平台保护。未来想靠AI批量生产“背景音乐”赚流量钱，恐怕会越来越难。

Music streaming company Deezer has been tracking the number of AI-generated tracks uploaded on the platform since last year, and the number has constantly gone up. Today, the company said that AI music now represents more than 50% of downloads. Deezer said that AI-generated track uploads were at a peak in June 2026, representing a monthly average of 90,000 tracks per day. The rapid rise of AI-generated music has forced streaming services to decide how much of it they want on their own platforms. There is no single consensus yet on that front. Some take strict steps, like Bandcamp banning such tracks or Tidal cutting off monetization. Meanwhile, Apple Music has a voluntary AI-tagging system, and Spotify developed its own policy about how much AI was used in music-making. Deezer’s latest move on this front will involve taking down AI-generated tracks that haven’t been streamed in the past six months or are involved in fraudulent streams to drive up revenue. “Deezer has been at the frontline of fighting fraud and reducing payment dilution related to AI music for almost two years. Now that half of all daily uploads are AI-generated tracks, we are taking additional steps to safeguard the rights of artists and songwriters, while maintaining focus on music that fans actually love,” Deezer CEO Alexis Lanternier said in a statement. The streamer first released stats around AI music uploads in January 2025, when the daily upload volume was around 10,000 tracks, or 10% of daily uploads. The number grew to 20,000 tracks, or 18% of daily uploads, in April 2025. It then climbed to 30,000 tracks, representing 28% of daily uploads in September 2025, followed by 50,000 daily uploads, or 34% of daily uploads, in November 2025. This year, it grew again to 60,000 tracks, or 39% of daily uploads, in January 2026. As of April 2026, the figure reached 75,000 tracks, or 44% of daily uploads. Deezer started labeling AI music on its platform last year, and said that its detection tech can also identify tracks generated with models from Suno and Udio, AI-music startups that are embroiled in copyright lawsuits. Earlier this year, Deezer made its detection tech available to other platforms, but it’s not clear if any of the major platforms are using the tool just yet. Last month, it also released a tool that can sift through Apple Music and Spotify playlists for AI-generated tracks.
