Fenix Flexin's song 'Rubberz' is under scrutiny for allegedly being generated using the AI music tool Treblo. The company's new AI Music Classifier, which detects Treblo-generated songs, indicated a high probability that 'Rubberz' was created with their model.

This incident underscores the increasing role of AI in the music industry.
