I think this needs more clarity. I can think of a lot of different ways AI is used in music today as a part of the song generation process and not sure whether or not this definition would apply to it. They specifically mention developments in "text-prompted generation" but if anything that confuses the issue more, for example what about training on specific music.

This isn't a comment on how expansive or narrow the definition should be, just that they need to spell it out more to allow for consistent application (to say nothing of enforcement). If someone uses ChatGPT for lyrics, but writes the instrumentals themselves, does this policy apply? I genuinely have no idea.

I'm a Tidal subscriber, something like this is needed.

My Tidal "feed" is full of new releases that are clearly AI-generated. They use the same artist name as artists that I really like, but the music is clearly not from the artist as advertised.

I have no problem with AI-generated music, I just don't want someone trying to spoof the artists I am interested in.

Allow AI, but require labeling as such, and demonetize. Would love for YouTube to follow suit on this

Would you really like to take action and earn less money? Morality is dead...
