‘We are truly doomed’: King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard despair at AI clone appearing on Spotify
Australian psych-rockers, who removed their music from Spotify in protest against the streaming service, lament the appearance of AI band King Lizard Wizard
In September, Spotify announced it had removed 75m tracks thought to be made by AI artists last year, as fraudsters attempt to generate income by flooding the platform with fake artists who can generate royalty payouts. There have also been instances of “deepfake” versions of popular artists such as Drake being uploaded online.But while most of these tracks are caught in spam filters and never make it on to the platform, or are swiftly removed if they do, AI-generated or enhanced music is likely to become more popular.
