AI generated songs should be allowed on streaming platforms. While such songs may displace songs created by humans, this is rather irrelevant to the actual target audience of streaming platforms, the listeners. The sole goal of streaming platforms should be to find the best and most relevant songs for listeners. If creators want to be successful, they should be able to use whatever tools they wish to create the best songs, rather than be subject to arbitrary restrictions. Quality filtering systems already exist on streaming platforms, preventing human songs from being drowned out in AI generated noise. While human creativity could be somewhat affected, there is an element of creativity, albeit a different one, in the human-assisted creation of an AI generated song. Why should this be limited? Furthermore, why should the streaming platform, rather than the listeners, be the arbitrator of what song generation method, human, AI, or a combination, is better or worse?
