How would the artifacts differ?

Interrupted audio in case of AM recording.

Due to electrical intereference?

Loss of carrier.

Assuming we are talking about video cassettes (and not
"Audio Cassettes" as the OP wrote)....

Loss of carrier in FM will ALSO cause interrupted audio.
Some might even say that it is worse because of the nature
of FM demodulation when no carrier is present (i.e.
"inter-station hiss")

The only thing that saves it (in the case of VHS "Hi-Fi" for
example) is that most VCRs will automatically revert back
to the linear (baseband) audio track upon loss of FM Hi-Fi
carrier.
