I usually can’t pinpoint the moment I stop using a software feature, with most tools drifting out of fashion without an expiration date. That’s not the case with YouTube Music’s “Beyond the Beat,” an AI-generated DJ that explains songs to you.
YouTube Music is my music-streaming service of choice. And since I’m a software reporter, I always enable the beta features available through YouTube Labs, which include Beyond the Beat. YouTube’s AI DJ randomly interjects for about 30 seconds between songs, teeing up the vibe shift and providing context about the next track.
