Spotify is cracking down on AI-slop and music spam 🤖
▫️ 50M+ AI-slop and spam tracks removed from recommendations this year
▫️ 75M+ spam tracks removed from Spotify entirely
▫️ Artist profiles labeled as "AI Persona" are excluded from editorial and algorithmic recommendations by default
“Over the past six months, we’ve made numerous updates to our recommendation system to remove slop and spam, and surface more music made by authentic, human artists.”
“One core idea drives this work: human artistry comes first.”
