September 26, 2023: Spotify launches Jam, a new personalized tool for creating playlists by group of people in real-time. Jam enables premium subscribers to invite other Spotify users to contribute music through a shared queue. Anyone who is on the shared Wi-Fi can contribute to the Jam but premium listeners can join anywhere, whether in the same room or across the world. It builds on technology used in Collaborative Playlists and Blend, that makes music sharing easier. Spotify said more than 45 million Blends have been created and last month alone, users spent over 200 million hours listening to Collaborative Playlists<ref>https://newsroom.spotify.com/2023-09-26/spotify-jam-personalized-collaborative-listening-session-free-premium-users/</ref>. | |||

EK said the industry is facing a big challenge when it comes to AI. "You can imagine someone uploading a song, claiming to be Madonna, even if they're not. We've seen pretty much everything in the history of Spotify at this point with people trying to game our system," Ek said. "We have a very large team that is working on exactly these types of issues."<ref>https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-66882414</ref> | September 26, 2023: Daniel EK, Spotify CEO said the company will not completely ban content generated using AI.
