US EditionAI-Recommended Music? Spotify Is Giving You the Power to Personalize
The AI-powered Taste Profile lets Premium users customize music, podcast, and audiobook recommendations by editing their algorithmic model using natural language commands.
- Spotify announced at SXSW that the Taste Profile feature will enter beta in the coming weeks exclusively for Premium subscribers in New Zealand, accessible via the app sidebar.
- Because prior tools only let listeners exclude playlists or tracks, longstanding user complaints over hidden profiles and shared listening noise prompted calls for fixes.
- Using a built-in Large Language Model inside the Spotify app, the AI analyzes skips, plays, repeats, revisits and saves, and users can use natural-language prompts or the 'Tell us more' box to customize recommendations.
- Following the NZ beta, Spotify plans broader expansion to global markets, with Taste Profile shaping Discover Weekly, Spotify Wrapped, and Home page recommendations.
- As part of a broader personalization push, Spotify builds on recent features like Prompted Playlist and Spotify DJ while scaling its personalization strategy across podcasts and audiobooks to 751 million monthly active users.
