For example, you can enter the prompt “relaxing music to tide me over during allergy season” and let AI do the hard work of making the ideal playlist. Spotify says your prompts can contain references to places, animals, activities, colors, and even emojis. Based on your input, Spotify will output an AI playlist comprising music across various genres, moods, and artists.
