TL;DR
- Spotify has released a utility in beta to upload AI-generated podcasts to its platform.
- The utility uses third-party AI agents to create podcasts and push them to the cloud.
- Uploaded podcasts are only accessible on the account they were initially uploaded to.
Spotify is working to let you listen to AI-generated podcasts in its app. It’s not adding AI audio to its existing podcast streaming library, but instead launching a new beta tool that lets users upload personal audio to Spotify, positioning that capability as a way to access AI-generated podcasts through the app.
The streamer announced the new project in a blog post today. Spotify itself isn’t currently able to generate AI podcasts, but using a new command line interface (CLI) tool, users are able to push podcasts generated in other apps to Spotify, where they can then stream those audio files on demand.
