Australia’s official music charts will exclude tracks made wholly or primarily by artificial intelligence after backlash over a heavily AI-dependent cover of Madonna’s “Like a Prayer”. The Australian Recording Industry Association said AI used only in a supporting role will remain eligible, while fully AI-generated music will also be barred from the ARIA Music Awards.
