Spotify‘s latest news feature “How bad is your Spotify Music AI” can show you how bad your taste in music is, but it is quite brutal.
An “AI Bot” created by the digital publication The Pudding and Spotify tell you how bad your music tastes, often with hilarious results. The AI robot will tell which songs you listen too much to and which artists you are obsessed with ‘to an uncomfortable extent’.
Fidlar will provide everything you need to know and how to take the quiz on How Bad Is Your Spotify AI.
Who Made “How Bad Is Your Spotify”?
The Pudding, a digital publication that explains ideas debated in culture through visual essays, created the website.
The Pudding stated on its website that “Our sophisticated A.I judges your awful taste in music is a sign of your inferiority.”
The A.I. will ask questions about your Spotify listening habits such as whether you really listen to certain songs. It also poke fun at your favorite artists and genres.
Spotify users can also play the game of “f*ck marry kill”, which will show you the artists that they’ve listened to on Spotify playlist. After getting your final score, you can play another game.
This will give you a list of songs you listen to “too much”, artists you stan “to an uncomfortable extent,” and a rating that reflects how basic your taste in music is. It also highlights the decade you are “stuck” in.
According to the website, the A.I. “knows what is good” as it has been trained on “over two million indicators of objectively good music,” including Pitchfork reviews record store recommendations, as well subreddits that you have never heard of.
