JAKARTA YouTube Music is testing the Radio AI feature, a tool for creating dedicated radios with generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) support. Users can make radios by submitting commands. Reporting from 9to5google, the Radio AI feature will be added to YouTube Music accounts, devices, or applications. This feature will appear with a card that reads, "Ask for music in any way you like." In the bottom left corner of the card, users will see a small icon in the form of a play button to Start Radio. When clicked, users will see chat rooms with typing columns at the bottom to enter any command. Apart from being typed, users can also submit commands via voice. Any method used to enter commands, YouTube Music may provide less accurate results because this feature is still tested. "The resulting response of AI is experimental in nature. Quality and accuracy may vary. Please don't include confidential or personal information about yourself or others," said YouTube.

At the top of the command input column, YouTube Music provides several musical recommendations such as catchy of an attractive pop choir, epic soundtrack, cheerful pop songs, and others. Users can also choose the Kejutan Aku option. After selecting or submitting the command, YouTube Music will feature Radio AI in the form of playlists and the first song can be played immediately. If users are interested in the results, they can add their answer to the playlist. This new capability is only visible on several devices and it is not yet known when it will be launched. Given this feature using AI, it looks like Radio AI will be launched to premium customers.
