The user notes that while some apps offer similar features, Gemini selects real songs that fit better than generic theme music.", "body_md": "| ||||||||||||\n1 point by |\nNot many people read books but AI is under rated for the ability to theme your experience. If you ask Gemini to create a youtube music playlist for you for a specific book the result is amazing and I wanted to share this with others because it changed my book reading to an actual audio visual experience.
