Spotify brings personalized AI Wrapped podcast, but only for some
Spotify and Google decided to take 2024 Wrapped one step further and launched a personalized AI podcast in line with this past year's trend of everything AI.
It is a short discussion between two AI hosts from NotebookLM, âunwrappingâ your year in music. However, the feature is available only in English to users from these seven markets â the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland, and Sweden.
Everyone else is getting a message that Spotify does not have an AI podcast for them.
The AI Wrapped podcast is a brand new feature, which is a cross-promotion between Spotify and Google â the Swedish streaming platform is advertising its most popular feature, while the US company is showcasing the AI capabilities of NotebookLM â a language model for research activities.
The 2024 edition of Wrapped is out, and it provides a breakdown of the most popular tracks and artists, including a personalized playlist for all users with their Top 100 tracks. The AI podcast provides a discussion between the hosts about the music styles, artists, and other interesting bits of information.
Some might be sad that they won't be able to experience the groundbreaking feature of two non-humans talking about the users' music preferences. However, we found a workaround that includes some extra steps â use an online tool to extract the personal playlist into an Excel file, save it as a PDF, and then feed it to NotebookLM.
