    Well, for starters the word of some random YouTubers is not proof, not even remotely. And second, it doesn’t make sense as you said it does. I don’t know if you’ve heard the stage at which AI music is right now, but let me tell you it’s not good, let alone capable of passing as human-made music. So you are, in fact, spreading bullshit.

      I disagree. AI music is shockingly good at sounding like real music. Just a couple months ago a popular producer sampled an ai generated song without knowing it.

      But soon after, it was revealed that the singer from the “BBL Drizzy” beat didn’t exist — the voice was AI-generated, as was the song itself. The vocals, melody and instrumental of the sample were generated by Udio, an AI music startup founded by former Google Deep Mind engineers. Though Metro was not aware of the source of the track when he used it, his tongue-in-cheek diss became the first notable use case of AI-generated sampling, proving the potential for AI to impact music production. (A representative for Metro Boomin did not respond to *Billboard’s *request for comment).

        In that same article you linked it later says King Willonius, the comedian who produced it, literally wrote the lyrics himself . He literally said (and quoted in the article) ‘I think it’s a misconception that people think AI wrote ‘BBL Drizzy’. Then it goes on to talk about how AI may be used for sampling, rather than to create new songs, but spends a couple of paragraphs talking about how it’s complicated because of copyright law. And in the end, the song, BBL Drizzy, got pulled from Spotify because AI was used in its production. That directly contradicts OP first comment. I do agree with you that AI is better than I first thought at music, but it’s far from perfect. But in any case, thinking that Spotify right now is secretly implanting AI songs is still bonkers (and without proof besides some random YouTube video).

          Well the songs that the YouTube videos mention are all instrumental so the lyrics aren’t necessary.
