JAKARTA - OpenAI has officially added Apple Music support to the ChatGPT app, providing a new way for customers to discover and save music through natural conversations.
This integration comes as a solution to the weakness of Apple Music's standard search feature, which for years has been considered too rigid because it only relies on specific keywords such as artist names, song titles, or albums. With the help of artificial intelligence, users can now search for music based on mood, vague memories, or subjective descriptions that are difficult for ordinary search engines to understand.
The main advantage of using ChatGPT compared to the built-in search feature lies in its ability to handle more flexible instructions. For example, users can ask for a list of alternative rock songs from the 2000s that are not too heavy, or minimalist electronic music that is suitable for accompanying work late at night.
ChatGPT is able to process these requests better and generate relevant recommendations without much additional guidance. In addition, this feature is very helpful in creating playlists instantly, where loose ideas can be immediately turned into a coherent playlist that is automatically stored in the user's library.
To start this integration, users only need to connect their Apple ID account through the application directory in the ChatGPT interface, both via the web and the iOS application. Although ChatGPT has access to search the public catalog of Apple Music and save songs to the library, user privacy is still maintained because the system cannot see listening history, personal playlists, or other sensitive information in the user's account.
It's worth noting that an active Apple Music subscription is still required for users to enjoy the full song save feature, although without a subscription users can still see search results and listen to song previews.
Although this integration offers high flexibility in the exploration process, Apple Music's built-in search remains the best option for factual and immediate searches.
However, for those who often feel frustrated with rigid search tools when trying to build a certain atmosphere, this collaboration between ChatGPT and Apple Music is a very powerful tool.
After the playlist is created by the AI, users are advised to still make final adjustments such as song order or editing details directly in the Apple Music app to get the most optimal listening experience.
