The special thing about this feature is that now users will not need to manually search for songs and add them to the playlist. They will just tell what kind of music they want to listen to. Like mood, idea or genre, and the app will automatically create a playlist for them.

How does the AI ​​Playlist feature work?

According to the company, this feature is available only for Premium subscribers. Users can indicate their preferences by writing text or giving voice commands. For example, if someone types “relaxing evening songs” or “energetic music for workout”, the AI ​​will generate a list of songs based on that.

According to the post shared on X, the feature appears with a Gemini-style logo in the app. However, Google has not yet clarified how much editing or customization facility the users will get in the playlist after it is ready.

How different from Spotify?

Recently Spotify has also launched a feature called Prompted Playlist. In this also, users type their preferences and the app prepares a playlist based on their listening history and trends.

YouTube Music’s AI Playlist feature is different from the already existing Ask Music tool. Ask Music was introduced in 2024, allowing users to request songs through natural language. But the new AI Playlist feature focuses more on building entire playlists, not just radio-style music sessions.
