After making Ask Music more prominent in the Home feed and bringing to iOS, YouTube Music today announced the ability to tune AI radios, as well as a handful of other features.
Following last year’s introduction, YouTube Music users can now tune their AI radios. After generating an Ask Music playlist, the chat UI page will show suggested follow-up prompts, like: “more upbeat,” “just jazz songs” or “only female vocals.” You can also type your own, with the generated radio updating itself above.
As of today, Ask Music is available for YouTube Music Premium subscribers on Android and iOS in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and Ireland.
Meanwhile, YTM is confirming the launch of Gemini-generated My Mix titles that reflect the overall mood of the personalized playlist. It’s also a faster way to browse and play. This is currently available for US YouTube Music Premium users only.
After introducing on the web last year, YouTube Music for Android now lets you upload custom playlist thumbnails. Open a playlist and tap the pencil icon in the 2×2 cover art for: Choose from library or Take photo. Google tells us today that uploads are coming to iOS in the coming months.
Finally, when using AI to generate custom playlist artwork, YTM has added new “Workout” and “Instruments” themes. This joins Colors, Cycles, Travel, Moods, Nature, Animals, Landscapes, Food and Drinks, and Fantasy.
