YouTube Music now has an analog to Shazam and “AI radio”
By ForGeeks Google has unveiled two new features for its YouTube Music service. One of them lets you use artificial intelligence to find music that matches your preferences, and the other lets you find individual songs even without their original source.
The new feature, called Hum to search, is represented by a sound wave-shaped icon to the right of the search bar, next to the voice input icon. This feature works similarly to Shazam, but, according to the developers, it can even search for songs based on the user’s hum, not just audio from another source.
YouTube Music has also introduced “AI radio,” which lets you create your own playlist by simply describing your music preferences. Both new features are still only available in the US on iOS and Android for now for users with a Premium subscription. A launch date for the new features in other regions has not yet been announced.
The new features will be available on iOS and Android only.
