"Spotify Introduces AI-Powered Text-Based Playlist Creation Feature for Premium Users"
Spotify is launching a beta tool called AI Playlist, initially available to Premium subscribers in the UK and Australia, that allows users to create curated tracklists based on text descriptions. Users can input prompts like "music to read to on a cold, rainy day" to generate a playlist of 30 songs matching that vibe, with the option to refine the results using additional prompts. The feature impressively matches songs to niche prompts and can reference genres, moods, artists, decades, places, animals, activities, movie characters, colors, and emojis. While there are limitations, such as non-music-related prompts and offensive content measures, the feature provides a faster way to create playlists and serves as a music discovery tool.
