Authorized AI remixes and covers? Fine. AI-assisted mixing and mastering? Also fine. Flooding the platform with thousands of thirty-second tracks tagged as “relaxing rain sounds”? That’s where you get purged. Spotify is actively working with labels to clear AI-created content for legitimate sale, according to Rolling Stone.

Money talking to money. No one's asking the artists to weigh in.

Because money only listens to money. Individual artists will never have the power to stand up to the corporations that are taking their stuff.
