The worst time of year is being misperceived by my own Spotify.
I've spent the past week analyzing what Spotify thinks are my most-played songs and artists.

Spotify Wrapped 2. Stop judging me!
The music streaming service uses machine learning and human curation to provide personalized descriptors based on listening history, but many users felt their year-end playlists were random and irrelevant.

Just imagine the musical blackmail Spotify has on each of us.

Let's approach AI with the mindset that it can be a powerful tool for efficiency, but there is a time when its use is overreaching.
