# YouTube Music gets more conversational with new AI features

**[TechCrunch](https://daily.dev/sources/tc)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

YouTube Music is rolling out new AI-powered features announced at the Made On YouTube event: Ask Music, a conversational search tool that lets users describe what they want to hear in natural language across a catalog of over 300 million songs, and Your Podcast Lineup, a personalized weekly AI-generated audio guide that previews recommended podcast shows and episodes. Ask Music supports building custom queues, exploring artist backstories, and answering trivia-like questions about songs. The moves echo a similar AI podcast feature Spotify introduced earlier, and follow YouTube Music's earlier experiment with AI hosts providing commentary and trivia. Both features are rolling out soon to YouTube Music and YouTube Premium subscribers worldwide.

## Questions this post answers

### What is Ask Music in YouTube Music and what can it do?

Ask Music is a conversational AI search tool built into the YouTube Music app that lets users describe what they want to hear in natural language instead of typing song or artist names. It works across a catalog of more than 300 million songs, including remixes, live performances, covers, and DJ sets, and can build custom listening queues, explore artist backstories, or answer trivia like who played bass on a track.

_Anyone tracking how AI search reshapes music discovery can follow updates like this on daily.dev._

### What is Your Podcast Lineup on YouTube Music?

Your Podcast Lineup is a personalized, AI-generated audio guide that appears on the podcast page in the YouTube Music app. Each week it gives a short spoken preview of recommended shows, explains why they might interest the listener, and can move directly into suggested episodes, aimed at helping people keep up with podcasts they'd otherwise miss.

_Developers watching AI-driven recommendation features across apps can keep up with releases like this via daily.dev._
