    Spotify’s AI-powered DJ doesn’t know how to blend.

    I’ve spent the last couple of days listening to Spotify’s new DJ beta, which began rolling out to paid subscribers last week in the US and tries to humanize the custom playlists Spotify already feeds you.

    Its synthesized voice and subtle quips aren’t teeeerrible, but, my dude, you can’t just segue from Seether to 1989-era T-Swift like that.

    Supply shortages were not particularly kind to would-be PS5 buyers during the pandemic, but there’s been a notable uptick in availability over the last few months. Right now, for instance, Sony’s God of War Ragnarök bundle is pretty widely available, ending what has felt like a two-year console drought.

    Better late than never, right?
