YouTube Music Adds ‘Made with AI’ Labels to Identify AI-Generated Songs

YouTube Music is rolling out new “Made with AI” labels to help users identify songs created using artificial intelligence (AI). The feature aims to make it easier for listeners to recognise music that uses AI-generated compositions or vocals.

The labels are beginning to appear on YouTube Music, while the main YouTube app is expected to receive the feature soon.

How YouTube Music’s AI Labels Work

Songs featuring AI-generated compositions or vocals will display a “Made with AI” label on the YouTube Music player page. Users can tap the label to access additional information about the track.

The feature is intended to give listeners more clarity about how music is created, particularly as artists increasingly use generative AI tools in music production.

YouTube Uses Detection Tools to Identify AI Music

YouTube says it is using its own detection tools and working with partners in the music industry to identify music generated using AI.

The company has not provided further details about the detection process in the announcement referenced in the report.

The rollout of AI labels on YouTube Music marks a step towards helping users distinguish AI-generated music from other tracks. The feature is expected to reach the main YouTube app soon, although a specific release date has not been announced.
