The problem here isn't a "dead-artist-ai-song" issue. It's that there are no robust protections against someone uploading songs under your artist name, and hoovering up playtime until someone notices, a week or a month later.

It happens all the time, and has been happening since well before AI-gen songs..

that was the pornhub excuse, i.e. we can't verify everything is consensual and overage. Well then you shouldn't have a business then!
