How Apple Music labels AI music
Apple Music has asked labels and distributors to tag AI use in artwork, track, composition and music video since March 2026 ("Transparency Tags"), and said the tags will become mandatory. As of the reports we checked, the tags were not visible to listeners; Billboard reports visible "Made With AI" labels are due by the end of 2026.
