YT Music also has an AI impostor problem.

I was listening to Crimson Veil (melodic grey metal, woman vocalist) when it started playing songs of a completely different genre, but the ‘band’ was still “Crimson Veil”; but this other music was drone-y industrial with flat, uninspired lyrics that felt AI generated. I poked around a few other streaming platforms and found the same thing on Spotify and Tidal. I think the band was eventually able to get the impostor removed, but they were up there for at least a couple weeks.

Lots of musicians are getting their discographies infiltrated this way. The last time I listened to Primus on Tidal, there was an AI generated rap group, and an AI generated blue/jazz act listed in their discography. The streaming services must know that this is an issue by now, as labels are having to spend a lot of time finding and squashing these impostors. Hopefully they implement some way of validating artist uploads to prevent playlist hijacking like this.
