Please this feature sucked on Spotify, I do not need it here.
The Spotify one is awful. It couldn't even pronounce some names correctly (like "Billy Jo-El).
if i never hear a radio host or fake radio host again it will be too soon
I'm sure the dozens of YouTube Music users out there are thrilled.
Hopefully revanced will patch this shit up
soulseek goes brrrr
Who would ever want that?
This is a good idea, but will certainly be enshittification given its innovators. I'd love an AI host to introduce a song every fifteen minutes or so when I'm listening through Jellyfin where it wouldn't include ads. Given YouTube's history with ads, that's probably all the AI host will be.
random celebrity voice And now, for the best tune you've heard all day, brought to you by Ozempic. Feeling fat? I saw you delete that selfie. Talk to your doctor about getting thin- I mean Ozempic today!
cue Fat by Weird Al
This is a good idea
lol this is one of the worst ideas in history
Didn't Trump just tariff Ozempic by the way?
Spotify has this currently. It's an AI DJ that will introduce blocks of music similar to what you'd expect from a radio DJ. I don't think it's too popular, but I actually kind of like it. It's definitely more interesting to listen to than just putting on a playlist - it pulls in music you've liked / favorited and plays genre-centric or themed blocks, and sometimes tosses in new stuff that Spotify thinks you might like. You can freely skip tracks, and if you skip a few in a row it'll take the hint and move onto something else.
