ChatGPT integrates Apple Music into its platform in both the web and mobile versions.
The new update will allow users to mix music and create their own new versions.
ChatGPT will search Apple Music's catalog and create playlists without accessing users’ song history and personal playlists.
Apple Music is now available in ChatGPT, giving subscribers a surprisingly new way to discover music and build playlists through conversation. Instead of hunting through menus or typing into a search bar, you can now just ask and let the AI do the curation. Here's how to set it up and get started.

With AI making inroads into different aspects of our lives every day, it is no big surprise that it is now stepping in to enhance our music experience. Apple Music can now be accessed through ChatGPT's apps on mobile and desktop. The easiest way is to use it online. Just ask ChatGPT for some new music.
This collaboration between ChatGPT and Apple Music has the potential to change how listeners discover new music. With ChatGPT, listeners can describe what they desire in natural language. All you need to do is ask the chatbot for ‘upbeat 80s songs for a road trip’ or ‘calm instrumental music for studying,’ instead of typing specific search terms. ChatGPT will even mix two different songs for you if you select the songs and enter the prompt.
This is not the first time AI has integrated into a music app. Spotify also offers AI-powered suggestions that let users listen to music based on their tastes and favorite genres.
How do we use Apple Music in ChatGPT? Let’s take a look at the detailed step-by-step guide:
