"Amazon Music Introduces Maestro: An AI-Powered Playlist Generator"

Amazon Music introduces Maestro, an AI playlist generator allowing users to create playlists using spoken or written prompts, including emojis, with the aim of matching songs to the input. The beta is currently available to a subset of free Amazon Music users, Prime customers, and Unlimited Amazon Music subscribers in the U.S., with more functionality for subscribers. The AI functionality may incentivize users to upgrade to a paid subscription, and the company has added guardrails to block offensive language. The beta is launching on iOS and Android, with plans to expand to more customers over time.
