AI Playlist Maker: PlaylistAI

Looks very promising. However I asked for upbeat jogging songs from the 50s through the 80s. The playlist had a ton of Christmas songs (something I’ll keep in mind come December) and many many duplicates so took probably 15 minutes to delete all those plus the songs I just didn’t like. On the plus side it included some songs I never would have included but fit surprisingly well adding some welcome variety/discovery. Honestly though, I usually get better results selecting “insert your name’s” station. I’ll play around with the app some more but right now I can’t justify the paid upgrade. AI is evolving so fast I expect this app to be genuinely great in a relatively short time. I recommend downloading it and taking it for a spin,you might just like it a lot.

This app has made some amazing playlists ! But the AI is still somewhat limited. I can type “upbeat new wave” and it makes a fine playlist. If I try to create “songs about dogs” or “songs about superheroes” it fails completely. It doesn’t seem to recognize BPM, lyrics or themes. For me, THAT will be the killer application. I’d love to be able to tell it “play songs from Oingo Boingo that have themes about death or scary things”, “Songs with the word “love” in it.” That may just be a training issue (maybe a way to edit the prompt after generating the playlist, or communicate to the ai directly, like ChatGPT and offer criticism there) If the app/service can meet its promise, This will be a game changer.

I’ve found some great songs using this app. I just hope there will be an option for a strict and loose criteria. That way the stuff selected in strict are guaranteed throughout the playlist while the loose stuff are the only changing thing. Like if I want a playlist that consists of only rap that should be strict, and for loose I could get a variation from picking among various things such as emo, aggressive, trap, mumble, etc.
