Why label AI artists?

Labelling AI artists helps listeners know if the music they're hearing was made by a human or an algorithm. For Spotify, it's about transparency and managing expectations, especially as AI-generated content becomes more sophisticated. It also addresses concerns from human artists about fair play and the potential for AI to flood the market.
