What does human verification look like when you grant that it’s impossible to tell?

I don't grant it. if you mean it is impossible to tell from the music itself, perhaps. but there are other means of verification.

  • A human can still upload tons of AI generated music though?

    I don’t see how verifying that the author is a human helps in any way.

    I also don’t think it’s a big problem but that’s another discussion

  • What are any reasonable examples of how you can verify a song wasn't AI-generated?

    e.g. Game speedrunners film the whole process to prove they did it themselves.

    Presumably you had some ideas when you envisioned "human-verified platforms".

    • Follow musicians and bands that perform live would be my choice. If they write their music with AI and I still like it then that's ok by me. Obviously this doesn't scale if you are a platform operator but that's not my situation.

    • music can be performed live and in person. many musicians work with other musicians, labels, studios etc. a web of trust can be built and verification via performance is a compelling option. not complete but it's certainly an option.

      would you as a label sign an artist you'd never seen perform? maybe there is value in a platform working under similar constraints.
