A new AI bot has launched that uses people's Spotify listening history to roast people's music taste, and it's pretty great.

The Pudding has launched its new 'How Bad Is Your Spotify?' AI bot to judge people's music taste by scanning users' listening history before ridiculing it.

The bot is trainned by the The Pudding's Mike Lacher and Matt Daniels.

Users have experienced some hillarious responses, including the bot asking people if they're ok as they've been listening certain artists, or demanding a quick response to its "Fuck/Marry/Kill" question.

Taylor Swift fans had their music taste battered by the bot, with one fan revealing the bot called their music taste "tay-tay-fangirl-broadway-cabincore-bad", while another user got the "Your Spotify was bon-iver's-impact-escape-room-cottagecore-bad" response.

Most users have experienced the bot stating "Your Spotify was pretty good", before adding a brutal two-letter addition: "jk".
