Music recommendations algorithms are a fools errand. If you look at Spotify, they do a good job initially but it gets really boring after a while. All algorithms or AI tries and usually fails to guess how you are feeling at that moment, maybe there was a trigger for me to hear a specific type of music, or maybe I suddenly feel nostalgic and want to hear 90s music instead of my favourite modern electronic which I skipped a whole tone if it comes up.
