Slopavision? Eurovision for AI-generated songs holds final vote


The website of EuroReVision, the song contest for AI-generated songs, says the competition now belongs to everyone.

With AI slop creeping into all aspects of life, Eurovision is no exception.

The annual song contest, in which most European countries, Israel, and Australia compete by creating 3-minute songs and flashy performances, was watched by 166 million people in 2025.

Countries not only send their representatives but also vote for others’ songs. This makes Eurovision a highly political event, with former enemies, now neighbors, supporting each other, as well as diasporas sending votes to their countrymen.

EuroReVision positions itself as a democratizer, saying the contest has changed and now belongs to everyone. The competition currently holds a grand vote, with 32 finalists representing different countries.

According to the website, the songs are required to be created by Suno AI, a generative AI platform that creates complete tracks.

Moreover, one user can upload multiple songs for different countries, meaning that you don’t need to be a country’s national to create a song for it.

No boycotts in AI Eurovision

Unlike real Eurovision, where calls for boycotts and bans of countries are increasingly common, politics doesn’t appear to play a major role in Slopavision.

Russia, which was banned from the contest in 2022 after it launched its invasion of Ukraine, is participating in the final.

Belarus is also present, despite being expelled from Eurovision in 2021 for using its song as a tool for the regime’s propaganda.

Israel, which some countries and artists have called for to be boycotted in this year’s Eurovision for the ongoing war in Gaza, isn’t represented in the AI contest.

EuroReVision is unlikely to outshine the real competition, which attracts viewers not only for songs but also for participants’ personal dramas.

At the same time, it reflects the growing influence of AI-generated music, which is increasingly difficult to tell from human-created songs.

French streaming platform Deezer announced in April 2026 that AI-tracks account for 44% of all new uploads, with nearly 75,000 AI-generated songs uploaded every day.

For some, AI isn’t just a way to compensate for the lack of artistic flair, but an opportunity to commit fraud.

A North Carolina man pleaded guilty in March 2026 for defrauding streaming platforms out of $8 million in royalties by using AI tracks and bots to increase the number of streams.
