Music streaming platform Deezer has announced that AI-generated tracks now account for 44 per cent of all new music uploaded to its platform. It receives nearly 75,000 AI-generated tracks per day and more than two million per month.

“Consumption of AI-generated music on the platform remains very low, at between one and three per cent of total streams. In addition, a majority (85 per cent) of these streams are detected as fraudulent and are demonetised by Deezer,” the company said in a statement.

The latest figures point to a surge in AI-generated music uploads. Deezer reported receiving around 60,000 AI tracks per day in January, up from 50,000 in November, 30,000 in September, and just 10,000 in January 2025, when it first launched its AI music detection tool, reports TechCrunch.

The updated figures come as an AI-generated track topped the iTunes charts last week in the US, the UK, France, Canada, and New Zealand.

“AI-generated music is now far from a marginal phenomenon, and as daily uploads continue to rise, we hope the entire music ecosystem will join us in taking action to help safeguard artists’ rights and promote transparency for fans,” said Alexis Lanternier, CEO of Deezer. “Since January, we have made our detection technology available for licensing, and we look forward to seeing industry peers of all kinds join us in the fight for fairness in the age of AI.”

AI-powered song-generation tools such as Suno and Udio are attracting new users at a rapid pace. While Spotify has announced new policies to clamp down on AI-generated music, Apple Music is asking artists and record labels to label songs made using AI. Bandcamp has banned AI music altogether, while Qobuz has begun automatically detecting and labelling AI-generated tracks.

In November, Deezer commissioned what it described as the world’s first survey focused on perceptions and attitudes towards AI-generated music. Conducted by Ipsos, the survey covered 9,000 people across eight countries. Key findings included that 97 per cent of respondents could not distinguish between fully AI-generated music and human-made music in a blind test featuring two AI tracks and one real song. Additionally, 80 per cent agreed that music created entirely by AI should be clearly labelled for listeners.
