YouTube enhances ‘Erase Song’ tool for more efficient removal of copyrighted music: YouTube is updating its Erase Song feature with a new AI-powered algorithm that can more accurately identify and remove copyrighted songs from videos while leaving the rest of the audio intact.
Key improvements and options: The updated tool offers creators two choices when removing copyrighted music:
Simplified process for creators: When a creator receives a copyright complaint, they can now easily access the Erase Song tool from the video’s copyright summary page and select their preferred removal option.
Importance of thorough song removal: YouTube warns that any remaining portions of the copyrighted song could prevent the removal of the claim and impact the creator’s ability to monetize their content.
Upcoming availability: The enhanced Erase Song feature will be rolling out to YouTube Studio on both desktop and mobile platforms in the coming weeks.
Broader implications for content creators: This update streamlines the process of resolving copyright issues for YouTubers, saving them time and effort while preserving more of their original audio content. It demonstrates YouTube’s ongoing commitment to improving its platform’s tools to better support the creator community and navigate complex copyright challenges.
No hype. No doom. Just actionable resources and strategies to accelerate your success in the age of AI.
