23 Feb
Summary
- AI generates custom playlists from user text prompts.
- Feature now available to Premium users in UK, Ireland, Australia, Sweden.
- AI explains song choices and playlists can auto-refresh.

Spotify has significantly expanded its AI-driven music curation with the global rollout of "Prompted Playlists." This innovative feature allows Premium subscribers to generate custom playlists simply by describing their desired music in text. Users can specify moods, aesthetics, eras, genres, or even inspiration from media or personal milestones.
Initially tested in New Zealand and launched in the U.S. and Canada, the tool is now accessible in the U.K., Ireland, Australia, and Sweden. Spotify's AI analyzes user listening habits and contemporary trends to craft playlists, with each song selection accompanied by an explanation. Users can refine these playlists or opt for daily or weekly automatic refreshes.
This AI expansion is part of Spotify's broader integration of artificial intelligence across its services. Recent AI-enhanced features include "Page Match" for audiobooks and enhanced lyrics with global translations. The platform is also exploring physical book sales within the app and leveraging AI internally to streamline development processes.
