YouTube Just Dropped an AI DJ for Your Music! 🎶
Okay, seriously, get ready for your YouTube Music experience to get a major upgrade. YouTube just unveiled ‘YouTube Labs,’ a new hub for their cutting-edge AI experiments. And the very first thing they’re letting us test drive? An AI music host right in the YouTube Music app!
Imagine a personalized DJ by your side, ready to deepen your listening with cool stories, fan trivia, and fun commentary about your favorite tracks. This isn’t just a playlist generator; it’s about adding context and a whole new layer to how we consume music. AI truly stepping into the role of content curator and companion!
Right now, it’s a limited test for US-based users, but if you want to be part of shaping the future of YouTube (and maybe get your hands on this awesome AI DJ), you can sign up at YouTube.com/New. Super curious to see how this evolves! What do you think – game-changer or gimmick? 👇
I received my Google Streamer this morning, plugged it in to a brand new HDMI 2.1, ran all the setup, and went straight to the settings to find out that the display resolution maxes out at 4k 60Hz. Why did Google bother including HDMI 2.1 support if they're not going to support 4K at 120Hz?
In light of Plex recently announcing that they're opening up API access to the Plex Media Server, we could see Plex integration in our favorite streaming apps in the future, including TV launchers.
Empowering Developers with Open APIs for Plex Media Server
In addition to these updates, we are excited to announce that we will be kicking off a Plex developer program to expand the capabilities of Plex Media Server libraries and provide support for custom media types. This move empowers our developer community to create additional client applications, introduce innovative features, and support a wider array of media types on the Plex platform. Whether you’re interested in developing a new app for ebooks, podcasts, or even niche media types, open APIs will provide the tools you need to bring your ideas to life. This initiative is part of our broader goal to enhance the personal media experience and expand the capabilities of Plex. We believe that by inviting collaboration and innovation from our community, we can unlock new possibilities and continue to push the boundaries of what Plex can do.
I've enabled this on my Pixel Tablet already; it works really well, even better with a mouse and keyboard. What's missing? For the Pixel Tablet, at least, it's being able to output to an external display.
Android Police saved the day by providing details on how to get the new Pixel watch 3 faces on any smartwatch. You have to enable Wireless debugging on your watch and install the APK via ADB. it's a pain, but it's worth it.
