In a bid to make its AI DJ feel more interactive, Spotify is updating the feature to let users request music or change the mood of a playlist using voice commands. The company is rolling out this feature, supported only in English, in over 60 markets for its premium subscribers.
Until now, you could only listen to the AI DJ play songs with some commentary in between. The company is now adding an interactive element to the feature.
Users can now tell the AI DJ to change the mood or genre, or have it play tracks from specific artists.
Users can search for the AI DJ in the search bar and hold the DJ button on the bottom right to make requests through voice commands. If you want to change the feel of the playlist without making a specific request, you can quickly press the DJ button.
Spotify first launched the AI DJ feature in February 2023 in the U.S. and Canada. The company later rolled it out globally in August 2023. Last year, the music streaming company added support for a Spanish-speaking AI DJ.
The company’s other big AI feature lets users create playlists using text prompts.
