Spotify's New AI DJ

tbh the voice could use a little work. i can imagine it going "alright up next we have champagne papiiiii, 6god! clears throat the one and only, drake."

does it also use automix for that DJ set vibe?

No thank you.

I would love for it to try and pronounce Loompaskette lol. I like the idea, a personalized DJ that is able to give you that "radio" feel that day after day is getting more and more lost in today's world. That's how I see it at least.

Welp, here goes my career. 😂

On a sidenote, some automix feature was part of it for a long time. So that was the first step

I’m a big fan so far! The voice reminds me of when I used to listen to radio (though with a lot calmer voice), and in the 15 songs I’ve listened to so far, I haven’t skipped one song. I know a lot of people have said that Spotify basically already has this feature with radio, enhanced, and dynamic playlists, but I’ve found those to be pretty terrible. This seems to be much better at giving me songs I’d actually enjoy, and I’ll probably use this in my car from now on.

i don’t think i’d mind it but i prefer my playlists lol

seems cool but obvs as a Brit it uhhh, doesn’t exist for me

Havent had the chance to try it out yet but it seems pretty cool. And I dont get the negative feedback that this has been getting because like you said, just turn it off if you dont want it

I’ve personally enjoyed the system, although I wish some of my “past songs” are just wedding tracks XD (I made wedding playlists for a friend) and sometimes the Editor’s picks are strange choices for me like screamo/metal which probably only shows up because of Sullivan King and Kayzo lol. Other than those, it’s been a pretty solid DJ!

A.I. is supposed to be a tool, not a replacement, and I feel like this is a wonderful execution of that! Can't wait to try it out myself! :D

YES. have always had this sort of problem with not really knowing what I want, and this does kind of help mediate that in a fun little way. It would be cool if it had a direct option from there to make it not count towards other recommendations, kind of like a side thing that you can have alongside the recommended music of actual playlists

it’s pretty cool but i’d like to see it a bit more personalized

As a DJ myself, this will never be able to replace us.

Honestly I didn't mind the AI DJ. Some weird stuff like saying I haven't checked in with an artist that had passed over a decade before, but it recommend me a few songs that I would have never found without it. I'd say a net positive.

YOU SKIPPED MILES TO GO

Spotify, sucks for this! 😠 😡
Use to DJ for the bars and gigs

I've only been using it for about a week, and not very long since I only listen in the car and have about a 10 minute drive to work 😅 but so far it's only played me country music. I guess I've been listening to country a lot this summer, but my most played playlist is a little less than half country songs, so I will be interested to see when it decides to give me other things (I love 80's music too). Also, I hope they allow us to personalize it a bit more later. Yesterday it introduced a song saying it may take me back to my childhood...it was a song from 2009... when I was 22 years old 😆

I like it. It is a cool thing and very helpful. A very nice video.

The Ai DJ helps you out by. I will say it does try to get you to look at new music. I think that it is needed for podcasts because it can help you read the text and control podcasts.

I want to be able to feed it comments and guidelines so it doesn't try to guess times when I want to hear a certain genre. Every night, I listen to Sound Bath radio to help me sleep. The problem with AI DJ is that it's mixing lots of Sound Barh music in, even in the middle of the day. If I could tell it to not play a certain genre, that would be amazing.

Great for people who have no idea why they listen to what they listen to and think they like it because they haven't heard enough music. I don't know anyone who is a true music fan that would use this.

I like X, but when he tries to say "here's what's popular" when I have like 1 Ariana Grande song in my whole 3000 Spotify songs and he throws Dua Lipa at me, it makes me feel like he should be taken behind the barn.
