Do you find it difficult to discover songs that match your current mood? Well, Spotify AI playlist feature can help you find the perfect songs for you based on your mood. All you need to do is input a prompt based on your mood or preferred song, and then the AI will generate a playlist of songs that match your prompt.
Turn your ideas into a playlist
Generative AI is the hottest trend in the market these days. You’ll find companies using this technology in their apps, smartphones, and other tech products. Now, this technology is coming to one of the best audio streaming platforms, Spotify, and will allow you to generate playlists with a prompt.
According to Android Authority, with the new AI Playlist feature, you simply need to enter a prompt, and the technology will tailor a playlist according to it. For instance, you can enter prompts like “music to keep me motivated during an intense gym session” or “romantic music for a candlelight dinner with my wife.”
Once you’ve entered the prompt, Spotify will use LLM technology to understand your intent and then go through your listening history and preferences to create a playlist that matches your prompt.
If the playlist is not to your liking, you can refine it by entering further commands that contain changes you’d like to see in the playlist. For example, if you’d like more bass-heavy songs in the playlist, you can enter a prompt like “more bass.”
While you can be as creative as you want with your prompts, the guardrails around the Spotify AI playlist feature will prevent it from responding to your prompt if you enter offensive words or anything related to a current event or a particular brand. You can create playlists using prompts that refer to a place, animal, activity, movie character, color, or even a particular emoji.
Spotify confirmed working on the AI playlist feature last year
In December 2023, TechCrunch reported that Spotify has confirmed that they are working on the AI playlist feature. The confirmation came after a TikTok user, @robdad_, posted a clip showing an option under Your Library to create a playlist with a disclaimer at the bottom stating, “Powered by AI.”
Now, this feature has reached the beta testing phase and is currently available for Android and iOS Spotify Premium users in Australia and the UK.
