AI features are rapidly spreading across virtually every type of app, making it increasingly hard to find any service that hasn’t yet incorporated artificial intelligence. In recent months, AI-generated playlists have surged in popularity within music streaming platforms, and it’s reasonable to expect that Apple Music will follow suit and embrace this trend before long.
This week, YouTube Music started rolling out a new AI playlist feature. YouTube Premium and YouTube Music Premium subscribers can turn an idea, mood, or genre into a personalized playlist…
In January, Spotify started an expanded test of a “Prompted Playlist” feature that uses AI to generate music suggestions based on a text-based request…
Since 2024, Amazon’s music service has offered “Maestro,” a feature that lets users build playlists using text-based prompts and emoji characters…
Apple has used AI to generate custom “For You” playlists for Apple Music users for years, but there isn’t an option to type in a prompt and get a customized playlist in response… no option to generate AI playlists and no specific Apple Intelligence features.
More of Apple’s apps are expected to adopt Apple Intelligence features in iOS 27, so it’s possible we’ll get new AI Apple Music features. Apple is now one of the only major streaming music services that does not offer prompt-based AI playlist creation.
MacDailyNews Take: By the time iOS 27 releases to the public in September, Apple Music subscribers should be able to describe to Siri — verbally or via text input — any AI playlist that they’d like to create.
