MediaProblem Solving

Bot-tom of the Charts

Effort: 10 minutesIn the summer of 2026, a band called the Velvet Sundown climbed past a million monthly listeners on Spotify with a warm, 1970s rock sound, and then admitted that nobody in the band was real. The songs, the voices, and the band photos were all made by AI. In April an act called IngaRose went to number one on the iTunes chart with a soulful R&B singer who does not exist either. Spotify's answer: any act made by AI has to carry an "AI Persona" badge, and badged acts are pulled out of every playlist and recommendation, so you will only hear them if you go looking. But the badge only covers acts with no human in them at all, and most music now sits somewhere in between, with a real singer over AI drums or a human songwriter with a cloned voice on top. Nobody has said how much AI a song can have before it counts. Labels have this problem everywhere. "Made in USA" is only allowed on a product that is all or almost all made here. "Made in Italy" only needs the last big step to happen in Italy, which is how a purse that is 95 percent made in China gets the tag and triple the price. The words on the label are easy. The rules behind them are the whole fight. Your Task: Imagine you run playlists at a streaming app, and your app has to write the rules behind its own label. 1. Your Song Think of a song you have on repeat right now. Say what you would feel if you found out tomorrow that the voice, the beat, or the words were made by AI, and which of those three would bother you most. (2 to 3 sentences.) 2. The Standard Name your label, for humans or for AI, in five words or fewer. Then write the rules behind it: which parts of a song count (the voice, the words, the beat, the cover art), how much AI a song can have before it loses or gains the label, and who checks. Your rules have to settle the hard cases, like a real singer with AI drums or a human writer with a cloned voice. (The label, plus 4 sentences.) 3. What It's Worth Decide what your label actually gets an artist: more money per stream, a spot in playlists, or nothing but the badge, and say who pays for that. Then run the song from step 1 through your rules and say what it earns. (2 to 3 sentences.) More
