Music streaming service Spotify is getting new AI assistant capabilities, so you'll be able to ask contextual questions about the content you're listening to. You'll be able to have a "back-and-forth conversation" with Spotify to ask questions about music, podcasts and audiobooks in a feature now rolling out to beta users.
In a video previewing the feature, Spotify shows a text box in the middle of the beta app, labeled "Ask for some music" or "Talk to Spotify," which lets you ask questions like "how many times have I listened to Bad Bunny?"
While testing the new feature, CNET was presented with a warning message that said, "You're about to talk to AI, which can make mistakes. Don't share sensitive data."
While all [music streaming services](/tech/services-and-software/best-music-streaming-service/) use algorithms to serve up content, Spotify has gone all-out with AI features in recent years, with an [AI DJ](/tech/services-and-software/spotify-adds-text-and-spanish-requests-to-ai-dj/), AI playlists and an AI spam filter for deepfaked and misleading content. Meanwhile, Apple also has its own [Playlist Playground AI feature](/tech/services-and-software/before-ios-27-dont-forget-to-check-out-these-ios-26-4-features/).
Spotify didn't immediately respond to CNET's request for clarification on the new feature.
The Talk to Spotify feature is rolling out in beta to eligible Premium users ages 18 and older in the US, Ireland and Sweden, on iOS and Android.
