After the Ban: Who’s Actually Listening?

Send us Fan Mail In September, SubmitHub banned pure AI-generated music and rolled out a new genre detector in the same month. Founder Jason Grishkoff then published the results in a post titled "Analyzing September's genre shake-up." This episode walks through his numbers: AI-flagged submissions dropped 57 percent by count and fell from 14 percent of all submissions to 6.5 percent, while submissions that weren't AI-flagged rose 2.8 percent. Josh covers what that means if you're an AI-assisted artist with finished songs, then gives you three questions to ask any curator, playlist, or submission service before you pay: Does a person actually listen? Is there a published disclosure? Does payment buy placement? Then he turns those three questions on his own submission service, the Jukebox. Disclosure: Josh still curates a few playlists on SubmitHub and runs the Jukebox.
