Apple Music told industry partners that content providers will be required to add AI Transparency Tags when AI created a material portion of submitted content, including tracks primarily derived from generative AI services. Tracks tagged this way are due to receive a visible Made With AI label later this year. Apple introduced the transparency tags in March, when their use was voluntary.
