A brand-new “AI DJ” feature has been introduced by Spotify, which it describes as a “new way to listen on Spotify and engage even more deeply with the bands you love.” A “selected assortment of music with commentary surrounding the tunes and artists we believe you’ll like in a wonderfully lifelike voice” will be provided via the feature.
What is the new AI DJ feature on Spotify?
According to a blog post from Spotify unveiling the new AI DJ feature, this DJ “knows you and your music preferences” sufficiently to “reimagine the way people listen on Spotify.” The DJ feature makes use of Spotify’s customization technology as well as OpenAI technology mixed with a “dynamic AI voice.”
Based on your listening preferences and history, the AI DJ capability essentially creates a never-ending radio station-style stream of music. The AI DJ voice will switch between songs in a manner akin to what you’d hear on a conventional radio station, explaining why it chose the music, when you last listened to it, and other information.
