The Velvet Sundown, a rock band boasting over one million Spotify listeners, has revealed its artificial intelligence origins. The band, which gained popularity rapidly, made the announcement a month after its debut album release. The band's Spotify profile now acknowledges the project as an 'ongoing artistic provocation'.
The band's rapid ascent raised eyebrows, with suspicions arising from its lack of online presence and the AI-generated aesthetic of its promotional materials. Despite debates around transparency, Spotify currently doesn't require AI-generated music to be labelled as such. Rival streaming service Deezer has begun flagging AI-created content, in some cases. The rise of AI-generated music prompts discussions about its impact on artists' incomes and the blurring lines between human and artificial creativity.
