Spotify Wrapped Now Includes an AI-Generated Podcast Analyzing Your Listening Habits
Spotify Wrapped’s animated yearly recap of your listening habits—at once beloved and reviled—is back again. Starting today, Spotify users will now get the chance to listen to their annual report as a personalized, AI-powered podcast, in which two synthetic hosts discuss the user’s most-played tracks and favorite artists with enthusiasm. If you’ve used Google’s AI tool to generate an audio podcast about a topic you’re researching, then the two AI-generated voices in the Wrapped podcast will sound familiar. They’ll flatter you—they told me I’m a “tastemaker,” and called my music taste “so diverse” and “so unique.” They’ll extrapolate details of your lifestyle based on your listening habits. Last year, the platform’s resident AI DJ, called DJ X, was included as a Wrapped add-on, providing commentary on users’ 2023 listening habits.
