Law
EU AI Act Article 50. In force 2 August 2026. Providers mark synthetic audio so machines can read it. Deployers disclose deepfakes. Art still discloses. It just cannot hide inside the song.
Wanna plai?
2027 will stamp an AI label on the file. You should not lick the stamp.
Sep 17, 2026. The mark is already moving. Put it on yourself first.
Already live
You do not wait for 2027 to tell the truth.
The stamp is not a future rumor. It is a stack of rules that already landed. 2027 is when nobody can pretend they missed it. The people who disclose now keep the account. The people who hide get the label anyway, plus the mess.
Stores
Spotify: AI Persona badge on generated identities. Out of default recommendations. Apple: Made With AI on tracks materially generated with AI. Deezer already tags fully AI. Tidal may list and not pay.
Charts
Luminate is standing up an AI Generated flag in the data that feeds Billboard. Official charts gate wholly AI tracks. SIQA is the other board.
What you do
- Tell us what a human did. No AI. AI-assisted. Fully AI. That is the stamp you control.
- We pass the disclosure through. We do not invent a pay row when a store will not pay Fully AI.
- We still deliver the file. Silence is not a strategy. Delivery plus honesty is.
- Do not clone a living artist to dodge a label. That is how you get removed, not ranked.
- You do not pitch all day. We curate and email. You push a button.
Licking the stamp means waiting until a store, a chart, or a regulator puts it on for you. Don’t. Mark the upload. Keep the packet. Make the next one.
PLAIGROUND takes none of the royalties. Artists keep 100% of their royalties. The account is free. Publishing, Boosts, and payouts are open to every artist.
For artists who’d rather be making the next one than reading a distribution agreement.
