The figure marks a sharp rise from January 2025, when the company said it was seeing roughly 10,000 such uploads daily, and underscores how quickly synthetic music has moved from novelty to routine. Reuters-style coverage of Deezer\u2019s statement noted that the streaming service is treating the issue as both a technical and a rights-management challenge.<\/p>\n<p>The French company said AI-made music still accounts for only 1% to 3% of total streams, but that most of those plays are fraudulent. Deezer said around 85% of AI-generated streams are identified as inauthentic and removed from the royalty pool, while the tracks are excluded from recommendation systems, tagged for users and no longer stored in high-resolution form. According to the company, those measures are intended to protect artists and improve transparency for listeners.<\/p>\n<p>Deezer chief executive Alexis Lanternier said in the company\u2019s blog post that AI-generated music is now \u201cfar from a marginal phenomenon\u201d and argued that the wider industry should take steps to safeguard artists\u2019 rights and make the technology more visible to fans. The company also said it is currently the only major streaming service tagging AI-generated tracks, and that it has begun licensing its detection system to other firms. Deezer says the tool can identify songs made with platforms such as Udio and Suno, and may be adapted to detect similar systems if enough training data is available.<\/p>\n<p>The latest figures build on Deezer\u2019s earlier disclosures, which showed 13.4 million AI tracks detected and tagged over the course of 2025 and daily uploads averaging about 60,000 at the start of this year. The broader picture points to a fast-growing flood of machine-made music that remains a small part of listening habits, even as it creates mounting pressure on streaming platforms to police fraud and decide how synthetic content should be labelled, ranked and paid.<\/p>\n<h3>Source Reference Map<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Inspired by headline at:<\/strong> <sup><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/entertainment\/915027\/deezer-ai-music-daily-uploads\">[1]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources by paragraph:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.noahwire.com\">Noah Wire Services<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"mt-0\">Noah Fact Check Pro<\/h3>\n<p class=\"text-sm sans\">The draft above was created using the information available at the time the story first<br \/>\n        emerged.
