the option to type your music requests, and there are new personalized
prompts to choose from They offer a new way to curate a DJ listening session, but other in-app features are overshadowing it

Despite its divisive nature, theres no denying that AI DJ is one of the most used and most popular features in Spotify s ecosystem of music tools, and the company is taking more measures to expand its capabilities.

Spotify is rolling out a slew of new features to AI DJ, giving Premium subscribers a new way to curate the vibe of their listening session in real-time, as per the companys announcement.

This marks the second biggest upgrade for AI DJ the first being the music requests tool back in May, which allows you to interact with DJ and request
to update your listening session based on the music you want to hear at that moment.

According to Spotifys announcement, the platform has seen a resurgence in AI DJ listeners since rolling out the requests function. Given this increase, it was only a matter of time before new functions would arrive for AI DJ its true to Spotifys style after all. Typed requests and prompts come to AI DJ (Image credit: Spotify)

As well as bringing the music request function to DJs Spanish version, DJ Livi, there are two new changes coming to the English edition of Spotifys resident maestro.

For the first time, subscribers will be able to choose from personalized prompts when making a request to DJ, which would come in handy for when you need a little inspiration boost when choosing what to listen to in the
moment.

When you want to make a request, you can choose from three personalized prompts to get your DJ session started, with each one offering its own genre and listening vibe. You could choose, for example, upbeat music that will
help me romanticize my day job, or chill music to stare into the void.

As well as using your voice to interact with DJ, you now have the option to type out your requests, which was the most asked-for feature according to Spotify. This gives you more options within DJ and can be used in both
English and Spanish, but where it will come the most helpful is when you want to make a request while commuting or are in busier environments, and want to refrain from speaking your prompts aloud. Nice touches, but nothing groundbreaking (Image credit: Spotify)

Its great to see Spotify building on its biggest features and finding fresh ways to tailor its different in-app experiences to suit the requests of music fans. While these new touches add some value to AI DJ, Spotify should focus
on DJs performance.

One of the downsides to AI DJ that users cant get past is the repetitive song playback. AI DJ prides itself on its ability to generate a hybrid playback session of regular favorites and new music discoveries, but it seems to be stuck on the former, and I find that its very heavy on giving me songs that are already on my radar.

Spotify has yet to fix this, and as a result, other features are stealing the spotlight its the new audio mixing tool that Im still hooked on. Now that Spotify Wrapped is almost upon us, the company is nearing a new year, and
with a new CEO now in place, Im hoping for some exciting but worthwhile changes for the platforms ecosystem.
