Right. AI music? Hopefully not, it is likely going to lead to generic slop that may infringe on other artists copyright. AI Podcasts? OH GOD NO! factual news isn't working with AI and you guys think that opinions with AI is a good idea? Are you crazy?

Now music recommendations? That might just work given that algorithms are already doing a decent job at presenting new ( to the particular user, not by actual age) music that the user may enjoy. The question really is if that is actually better than what we already have. And there is only one way to find out, which is by testing it and then being honest about it.

In my experience they really suck..."oh, you liked that song from this artist? let me just push a shitload that is categorised in the same basic genre without actually considered the specific track you liked"

It's so ridiculously generic in its suggestions it's useless. So yeah, AI can almost only do a better job at this than currently.
