Is there a way to filter out AI artists

[shadowdream]

Hi all,

Does there happen to be a way to filter out AI artists? I keep getting them on my stations and it's driving me crazy. I thumbs down a song from the artist but get another one from the same one later. 

I don't want to mess with my station too much, because other than the AI content, I have it pretty dialed in, and I don't want it thinking I don't like the genre.

I avoid most generative AI. Not trying to start a debate. AI has legitimate uses, I am not against all of it, but I don't want my subscription pennies going toward generated music, when real artists could be getting it.

I have been a pandora listener since waaaay early on, and I am seriously considering unsubscribing if I can't make that choice.

I think we need both. It's not always easy to thumb down a song, while you are driving, for instance.

True. I can't thumb down on my Google Auto.

I don't want to see stuff like this in my feed. Six albums released this year already. Each with about 50 songs?

Give us an option to filter out AI generated content please.

even if its not perfect from the start, at least give us something like pinterest has, where ai content gets labeled as such and you can turn off a checkbox slider in your personal settings to show ai recommendations in your feed. pandora what are you doing. like of all the platforms to be aware of the uncontrollable plague of genai, youd think one named PANDORA would be on the side of controlling and managing and containing it... come on, pandora, do the smart thing here and prioritize this update. if you arent gonna remove genai content, at least make it something a user has to opt in to be exposed to. it should be the users choice if they want to open the pandoras box of genai 'content'. @Pandora do better

I just signed up for a year at the premium level. The sound quality is great. I can usually tell which channel or "performer" might be AI. 

At the very least, Pandora needs to address the issue with their response to AI and what measures, if any, they will take to either remove it, or else CLEARLY label if content is AI.

I started my Pandora account when I was probably 14 or 15, that was about 20 years ago for me. I've loved it, I've never used anything else, and I have been a champion of this platform for a long time. I started noticing the ai tracks popping up in my stations recently and it's been a huge disappointment.
There is nothing worse than being in the middle of a groove with some of your favorite artists and tracks and suddenly (and instantly in my case) hearing an ai generated voice with some bland and uninspired mechanical lyrics interrupt. It's honestly insulting to the artists to even put a track like that in the same playlists as someone like Sade, Erykha Badu, or whoever (I listen to everything, so I'm here for you too metal and electronic listeners).
I really hope you have plans to either add filtering options, remove these artists completely, or give users the ability to flag and request removal for these tracks. This is the first time since I've started my account that I've considered closing the doors on Pandora. I'm about to start ripping cassette tapes at this point...

This says there is an accepted solution and there 1000% is not one. Did someone at Pandora do that to try and close this out? Way to ignore the demands of your customers?
