LONDON — Ever heard a song and wondered if it’s real or made by a computer? With AI music tools like Suno and Udio popping up, it’s getting harder to tell. For example, the fake band Velvet Sundown fooled fans with AI-made songs and art. But don’t worry! There are easy ways to figure out if a song is AI-generated. Let’s dive in and explore some tricks anyone can use.
First, do a quick background check. Real artists usually have social media accounts, concert dates, or videos online. If a band has no presence, it might be fake. For instance, check if they’re on Instagram or YouTube. No posts? That’s a red flag. Also, look for concert tickets or record label info. If none exist, the artist could be AI-made.
Next, check for song tags. Streaming apps like Deezer now label AI-generated tracks. They use tech to spot patterns in AI music. In fact, Deezer found that 18% of songs uploaded daily are AI-made. So, if you see an “AI-generated” tag, you know it’s not human. This helps stop fraudsters who use AI to steal royalties.
Another way is to use song scanners. Websites like IRCAM Amplify let you upload a song to check if it’s AI. I tested it with some AI songs, and it caught them with 81.8% to 98% accuracy. But it’s not perfect. Human songs scored low, so always double-check. Sadly, you can’t paste Spotify links, which is a bummer. Other scanners exist, but results can be mixed.
Also, listen to the lyrics. AI often writes weird or repetitive words. For example, Suno loves using “neon,” “shadows,” or “whispers.” If a song has these, it might be a clue. Plus, AI lyrics can sound flat or rhyme poorly. Serious users write their own words, but casual ones let AI do it, and it shows.
Finally, don’t trust your ears alone. AI music is getting so good that even experts struggle to tell. Manuel Mousallam from Deezer says old tricks, like spotting reverb in vocals, don’t always work anymore. AI tools keep improving, so you need more than just listening.
However, these tips aren’t foolproof. AI is changing fast, and new models like Suno and Udio keep popping up. Still, by checking backgrounds, tags, scanners, and lyrics, you can get a good idea. Want to learn more about tech trends? Visit AMERICA NEWS WORLD for the latest updates.
