Overview

FAQ
What is an 'AI Persona' on Spotify?
It's a music artist that does not represent a real person, but an AI-generated identity, and will carry a special badge on the platform.
How will this affect artists in the Middle East?
It may reduce the reach of AI-generated music in the region and push real artists to clearly distinguish their work.
Can artists appeal the labeling decision?
Spotify hasn't detailed an appeal process yet, but since it uses human review and automated tools, appeals may be possible in the future.
When does this policy start?
Self-disclosure starts today, while labeling and recommendation removal begin mid-September.
