Spotify says it's removed 70 million 'spammy' tracks amid AI-generated music flood - Gulf Coast News and Weather

When you open a music app, you expect to hear genuine songs from your favorite artists, not computer-made filler designed to game the system. Massive influxes of low-quality audio clog up automated recommendations, mess with your daily mixes, and waste your time and mobile data on empty noise. For everyday listeners, that means finding good tunes becomes frustrating, and the playlists you rely on for workouts or commutes can quickly go downhill.

If you notice unfamiliar songs with bizarre titles, static-like sounds, or looping generic beats popping up in your personal mixes, take action immediately. Tap the menu next to the offending track and choose to hide or dislike it so the algorithm learns what to avoid. It also helps to scan your recent listening history and saved playlists to remove any odd songs that might have sneaked in while playing on shuffle.

Cleaning up your library only takes a minute, and actively pruning the junk ensures your streaming service keeps delivering the real music you actually want to hear.
