The AI playlist feature on Spotify seems to work pretty well. I’m as skeptical as the next re AI use cases, but I was making something like this for a personal project, as I felt the usual suggested tracks, AI DJ and artist radios were a bit too predictable. This saves me some effort.

Really enjoying my current interaction design gig, after a year or two as a Service Designer. Feels nice to be closer to a digital product and getting into the detail. Grass is always greener mind, so I know this probably won't age well!
