AI music recognition in Roon

I notice a lot of "fake” musicians shows in listing of songs and albums in recommended and similar music.

I am listening blues mostly and I receive some strange non existing singer and groups in these category like Enlly Blue, Whiskey Blues, Nina Blaze, Jerry,s Sound Room, Sienna Rose …and much more.

They are all AI music obviously.

How to fight against them?
Can Roon make something?

I’ve moved your post from Feedback > Feature Suggestions to Roon Software Discussion. I think this is an excellent topic of discussion, and could lead to a clearly articulated feature request.

I don’t want to see AI-generated content, and if the streaming services continue to add such releases to their catalogues, I’d like a way of flagging this in Roon, so it may be removed wholesale.

Whilst we can ban these artists, it would be better if this could be done another way using the Roon community (crowdsourcing.)

I think this might be an excellent initiative. I haven’t seen AI music in my Roon recommendations yet but my YouTube feed is littered with it. It would be great if Roon could develop a way to filter this stuff out or at least flag it as AI.

I had a look at one artist @Ranko_Labovic mentioned, but I’m not going to play anything since the only reason it’s there is to generate income (and take away from real artists.)

The lyrics are awful, and it is clear that a human didn’t pen them. I don’t want trash like this in Roon.

I currently use TIDAL, and it is evident that they do not have a policy for this. No idea what Qobuz does.

Qobuz are rolling out an AI detection system:

Apple have asked the labels nicely to declare AI music:

Apple’s policy seems like kind of useless given that most of this garbage is submitted via independent distributors and the people doing this are quite clearly not going to own up to doing it.

Hopefully the open source scene can develop a tool that Roon can implement to filter out this crap.
