The music streaming service Tidal said on Monday that artists uploading music wholly or substantially created using AI will have them label them as such — and those songs won’t be eligible for royalties.

The service’s new AI policy goes into effect July 15, and it also applies to Tidal’s independent artist franchise Tidal Upload. Tidal will also ban AI-generated music associated with “fraudulent activity,” a category that includes songs impersonating established artists and efforts to “deceive listeners.”
