Music If Spotify Wrapped stats aren\u2019t enough, the audio giant has teamed up with Google to build an AI-generated podcast offering an audio recap of your year in music.<\/h2>\n
The Spotify Wrapped AI podcast features two AI hosts from Google\u2019s NotebookLM unwrapping the year in music. These hosts dive into favorite tracks and artists and explore the way a person\u2019s music taste evolved throughout the year. Spotify created the personalized podcasts using the technology that powers NotebookLM\u2019s Audio Overviews.<\/p>\n
How to Listen To Your Spotify Wrapped AI Podcast<\/h4>\n\n- Go to the Wrapped feed on the Spotify homepage.<\/li>\n
- Or head to Spotify.com\/WrappedAIpodcast<\/a>.<\/li>\n
- Tap \u2018Your Wrapped AI Podcast\u2019 to give ti a listen.<\/li>\n
- The podcast can be shared with others or downloaded for posterity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Wrapped AI podcast is available in English for eligible Spotify Free and Premium users located in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland, and Sweden. However, it\u2019s only available for a limited time.<\/p>\n
The AI generated podcast is a new spin on Spotify Wrapped, but I\u2019m not sure how well it will be received among listeners. Many took to social media<\/a> to voice their frustrations about this year\u2019s Spotify Wrapped drop compared to last year. Part of that is Spotify laid off its data engineers who helped craft last year\u2019s meticulous Wrapped stats.<\/h4>\nSpotify laid off 17% of its employees<\/a> in a third round of job cuts last year, with Spotify data engineer Glenn McDonald impacted<\/a>. He was the mind responsible for the Every Noise at Once<\/a> website, which was a precursor to Spotify\u2019s highly customized Daylist playlist.<\/p>\n\u201c[Every Noise at Once] is to understand the communities of listening that exist in the world, figure out what they\u2019re called, what artists are in them and what their audiences are,\u201d McDonald told TechCrunch. \u201cThe goal is to use math where you can to find real things that exist in listening patterns. So I think about it as trying to help global music self-organize.\u201d<\/p>\n
McDonald no longer has access to Spotify\u2019s internal data, so Every Noise is no longer maintained. That shows in this year\u2019s Spotify Wrapped results, which were decidedly worse than 2023, unless you always wanted an AI podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section><\/div>\n
