A new research paper analyzes the effectiveness of various audio embedding models for music recommendation systems, particularly focusing on generative approaches. The study systematically evaluates six audio encoders across content-based, sequential, and Semantic-ID-based generative recommender systems. Findings indicate that audio-text-aligned and music-domain representations perform best when used directly, while interaction-based sequential training reduces performance disparities between encoders. The research also suggests that increasing Semantic-ID capacity does not consistently enhance generative systems and can lead to instability. AI
