Australia's music charts ban AI-made songs amid backlash over Madonna cover Share Australia's music charts ban AI-made songs amid backlash over Madonna cover on social media Australia's official music charts have banned tracks mostly created by artificial intelligence (AI) following a backlash over a cover of Madonna's "Like a Prayer" that relied heavily on the burgeoning technology. "Wholly AI-generated" music will be excluded from the charts under the changes, while tracks that use AI in a "supporting role" will still be eligible, the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) said on Tuesday. ARIA said it would rely on a labelling system introduced by music industry groups last month to distinguish AI-generated tracks from those that use AI to complement human creativity. Under the labelling rules announced by a coalition of organisations including the Recording Industry Association of America, tracks may be labelled "AI-Generated" or "AI-Assisted" depending on the level of human involvement in the writing and recording process. Tracks are classed as "AI-Generated" if AI was used to create the "entirety or the primary portion of the creative elements of the recording" and "AI-Assisted" if the technology was used only for "some expressive elements".

Songs created by AI banned from Australia's music charts Image caption, Songs must be substantially human made to be included in Australia's charts Songs that are largely or wholly created by AI have been banned from Australia's music charts. From this week, all releases must be substantially human made to be eligible. The Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) said the new code would help promote the human nature of artistry. It follows a controversy around a cover of Madonna's Like A Prayer by Australian DJ Josh Fawaz which recently topped the ARIA dance singles chart and peaked at number 2 on the country's overall chart. The song has become a staple of commercial radio station playlists and been streamed more than 48 million times on Spotify alone.
