Spotify is testing a tool that uses AI to enable users to create custom artwork for playlists on the streaming platform.

Spotify’s new tool, AI Playlist Art, analyzes a playlist and generates custom artwork based on the playlist’s theme and “vibe”.

Unlike most Spotify tests which the streamer barely acknowledges, the AI Playlist Art tool is quite public including a landing page, which hints that it is likely destined for a global rollout.
For now, though, it’s only online in Australia and New Zealand where it is available for both Free and Premium Spotify users.
