Music streaming service Spotify has announced it is introducing a feature that will enable listeners to see if an artist is AI-generated.
Spotify said on Tuesday it would begin adding "AI Persona" badges to some profiles from mid-September to give listeners more transparency about whether the artist behind the music was a real person.
The new label, which will begin to be applied next month, is an effort by the streaming service to be more transparent about A.I.-generated music on its app.
"True artist-fan connection can only be built on a foundation of trust and authenticity," Spotify said Tuesday.

Spotify will begin labeling AI-generated artists with “AI Persona” profile tags and ban their music from its editorial and algorithmic recommendations, the company announced on Tuesday.
During its second-quarter earnings call on Tuesday, Spotify again teased the upcoming release of a new product that will allow music fans to leverage AI to make covers and remixes of artists' music, with the artists' consent.
