AI NEWS: Spotify Gives Users Algorithm Control

Spotify just let AI rewrite your algorithm. A new beta called Prompted Playlists

lets you tell Spotify exactly what kind of playlist you want, in plain language.

Type any vibe, detail, genre, or mood and Spotify's AI mixes

your request with your listening history to build a custom playlist. You can even

set it to auto-refresh, basically creating a Discover Weekly that you control instead

of the algorithm guessing. It's a shift toward user-steered algorithms. Something Spotify,

Instagram, and others are pushing as AI becomes more personalized. Your playlists are

about to get way more direct. More sharp tech news in under 30 seconds.
