AI music recognition in Roon

According to Claude ai when asked, “Can Roon make something?” :

What would actually solve this:

  • TIDAL and Qobuz would need to tag AI-generated content in their metadata — something the industry is actively debating but hasn’t standardized yet
  • Audio fingerprinting against a database of known AI tracks — but no reliable public API for this exists yet

Claude ai created an extension for me, AI Music Recognition Extension, which detects some (i.e., certain distributors of AI-generated music), but not all of the AI content introduced to TIDAL and Qobuz’s catalog of music. The larger distributors, like Suno and Udio, do not distribute music tagged with their name. Rather, it is tagged by the creator’s chosen name and is treated like human-made music.

Streaming services are slowly responding to those of us who are concerned about AI music “spam”…
