A new Spotify tool will let you turn all of your twisted ideas into playlists.
We say “twisted” because we see some of the things you all say online. No judgement here, though!
The concept follows the success of some of Spotify’s other features, including Daylists, which curate playlists to fit your different moods based on your recent listening habits.
The new one, dubbed AI Playlist, is exactly what it sounds like, except users get to write an idea into a chat box, and then AI works its magic and creates a playlist based on what was written.
Spotify’s new blog post about the tool states that subscribers can write “prompts that reference places, animals, activities, movie characters, colors, even emojis.” AI, in turn, will generate a playlist that combines different moods and genres.
How to Use Spotify’s AI Playlist
The tool is still in beta, according to Spotify’s post, so it’s currently only available to premium subscribers in Australia and the U.K.
To access it, open the Spotify app on your mobile device, go to the “Your Library” tab, press the “+” icon and then AI Playlist.
From there, you can either select one of their suggested prompts or experiment with one of your own. They encourage you to get creative, and while their prompt examples include “sad music for painting dying flowers” and “tracks for horse riding into the sunset,” we know metalheads have the power to get really weird with it.
Once AI creates the playlist, you can modify it. You can add or remove tracks, ask it to add more of a particular style and even slow or speed up the overall tempo. The possibilities seem to be endless, which is a bit scary, but fun nonetheless.
