This new hilarious AI tool will tell you how bad your music taste is

As the online response to this year’s Spotify Unwrapped proved, we love getting an insight into our music listening habits, and Spotify is the app of choice for most.

Now a cheeky new online artificial intelligence (AI) tool is able to give you a fresh perspective on your music taste - by mocking you for it.

“How Bad Is Your Spotify?” is the question asked by website The Pudding. Here’s how to find out the answer.

How does it work?

The AI tool says, “I’ve been trained on a corpus of over two million indicators of objectively good music, including Pitchfork reviews, record store recommendations and subreddits you’ve never heard of.”

The tool comes from American digital publication, The Pudding, and was “trained” by Mike Lacher and Matt Daniels.

How to use it

First, you’ll need to visit The Pudding website to get started.

You’ll be greeted with a message from the AI that says, “Hi, I’m an AI trained to evaluate musical taste. To get started, I’ll need to see your Spotify.

“I’m just gonna look at what you listen to. I won’t post or change anything.”

From there, you’ll need to hit the “Log in with Spotify” option to connect your account.

Log in as usual, be it through Facebook, Google or email address. You’ll have to agree to the terms and conditions, which are:
