The Spotify AI Persona Badge is a labeling feature for artist profiles on Spotify. According to a YouTube creator summary (Matt Wolfe), it was announced to roll out from mid-September, and lets artists self-disclose when a profile represents an AI persona rather than a human artist.
Per the same source, profiles marked as AI personas are excluded from editorial and algorithmic recommendations. The feature is a transparency and discovery-policy measure inside the Spotify app, not a generative AI model or tool for creating music.
The official pages fetched (the Spotify web player) did not include details about the badge, so specifics such as exact eligibility rules, verification, and enforcement are not confirmed here. The badge is presented within the existing Spotify app, which is available with free and paid Premium tiers.

Spotify will add an AI persona badge to artist profiles from mid-September and let artists self-disclose. AI personas will be excluded from editorial and algorithmic recommendations. Matt supports the idea.
YouTube moves AI disclosure labels to a more prominent position and adds automatic detection that labels significant photorealistic AI content when creators don't disclose.
