I keep ending up with AI music in my playlist when exploring for me music. What is your workflow to avoid it? Searching DDG for me has been more bandwidth intensive than I like…
Some background. My favorite song is a song I haven’t heard yet. And my appetite sways wildly. One month it’s old school urban rap, the next it’s kpop, and then Nordic death metal and so on.
I never know what I’ll be in the mood for but I’ll find a thread with a song I don’t know and use it to build play lists to see what I find and sometimes I find trash gems that way.
This last time our friend group watched Eurovision 2026 together and some of those songs are bangers. One of them led to adding a few artists built off of playlists from that song I really liked, and they all ended up being AI… damnit!


What platform are you on? I haven’t experienced this in Apple Music but I often listen to the same stuff rather than going down discovery holes.
I’d second this question - I use a lot of bancamp and so far it seems pretty ai-free
YouTube music…
I’ve tried to leave them before but I haven’t found a single platform that has more than 60% of the content I like that isn’t worse (Spotify for example).
I like the odd music so much from small creators I’d hate to lose it.
Seems like there are a few threads like this from 2025 where they just tell users to submit feedback but no way to block it yet it seems.
Probably more effective to cancel your account and tell them why you’re cancelling rather than sending feedback though 🤷♂️
I’m looking for another service right now that has enough of the music in my playlist to swap and do just this.
Plus it’s a family plan so a little extra sting.
But then I have to teach my mom the new service… I love her. But maybe not that much 😂♥️
