YouTube's move to surface AI involvement mirrors Spotify's cautious approach to the deluge of cheap synthetic music now possible with tools like Suno and Udio. But labeling alone won't solve the economic problem: AI-generated filler drowns out human artists in algorithmic recommendations. Streaming platforms now face a choice between curation (expensive, limited catalog) and scale (algorithm-vulnerable to low-cost AI content). Labels are a cheap way to defer the problem to users rather than solve it internally.
