Spotify has its fair share of AI-powered features that make its mobile app even more of a destination for audiophiles and folks who just want to liven up their daily drives.The list of AI tools that have become a part of the Spotify ecosystem thus far includes the AI DJ (a personalized voice guide that’s part music curator and commentator who drops info tidbits about the tracks you listen to), AI Playlist (a tool that lets you build playlists with text and emoji prompts) and Daylist (an updating playlist that automatically switches up the musical vibes depending on the time of day and your listening habits).Alongside those features are the ability for Spotify users to use a voice translation tool that changes the original voice of a podcaster to different languages while maintaining their voice tone and style, AI remixes that let users produce their own AI-generated remixes of participating artists’ tracks and AI-generated personal podcasts that are created by user prompts.Now Spotify has added a new AI assistant that lets users speak directly to the app to broaden their music horizons even more. Try out these prompts to get the best out of its music-fueled capabilities and also make use of Spotify’s other recommended prompts during your podcast and audiobook listening experiences.Prompts that’ll broaden your musical horizonNow you can talk to Spotify:🎧 It plays what you want🎧 It adds what you want🎧 It even answers what you’re curious aboutWhat’s the first thing you’d say? pic.twitter.com/uKajUFpA1GJuly 14, 2026Spotify’s newly revealed AI assistant is available to eligible Premium subscribers, who can use it in the “Home” and “Now Playing” tabs in the mobile app. Currently, the feature is only available in English in the U.S., Ireland and Sweden on iOS and Android devices for users aged 18 and above. An official blog post commemorating this new AI feature provided users with some starter prompts, such as “save this song,” “add this to my queue” and “follow this artist.”Some other suggestions Spotify gave to users for its new mobile AI assistant include turning it into your digital music conversationalist. Asking the app to “play some artists I haven’t heard before” and following that request up by asking it for something more upbeat, narrowing a newly discovered artist’s track selection to their most recent releases and giving it even more specific directions work like a charm.Thanks to the assistance of ChatGPT, I generated even more useful prompts that you can say to or type into Spotify that’ll produce the best results possible during your daily app listening sessions:Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips.Discover artists you haven't heard before: Play five artists similar to [artist name] that have fewer than 500,000 monthly listeners.Mix unexpected genres: Blend 90s hip-hop, indie rock, and synthwave into one playlist that somehow works.Rediscover forgotten favorites: Play songs I used to listen to a lot three or four years ago.Explore another country's music scene: Introduce me to the biggest indie artists in [name of country] right now.Skip the obvious hits: Play deep cuts from [artist name] that aren't her biggest singles.Match the weather: It's raining outside. Play music that matches the weather without being depressing.Find tomorrow's stars: Play emerging artists that music critics think could become mainstream soon.The takeawaySpotify is continuing to give its users even more clever uses of its app through plenty of implementations of AI. With the app’s new AI assistant feature in tow, you’ll be able to voice your commands or type them out if you’re looking for artists you’ve never heard of before, finding new songs from a variety of musicians, learning more about your listening habits and more.Using Spotify’s starter prompts and the prompts we generated with the help of ChatGPT should push you to expand your music know-how, deepen your playlists, discover new info about your preferred audiobooks, get transported to specific sections of your favorite podcasts and so much more.
