It is enough to spend a few seconds thinking about it and, without a doubt, we see that the Google Gemini integration into YouTube Music It can be a great idea with sensational results. And, as we read on Android Authorityit seems that the search engine has already gotten to work, and in this publication we see that they have managed to activate this function, still in development, to test its operation, which has been documented in the images that you can see below.
Less than a week ago it was confirmed the arrival of the first Gemini extensions to the Spanish market, a movement that we were looking forward to with great interest, since these plugins for chatbots make their usefulness grow exponentially. It is true that, at the moment, only seven have arrived, all of them related to Google products and services, but it is to be expected that over time we will see many more arrive, just as is happening in other chatbots.
As we already told you, one of the Gemini extensions is YouTube, which allows you to ask the chatbot to search for videos based on your instructions in the prompt. Thus, and given that its operation seems to be quite fine-tuned (at least in the tests I have carried out in recent days), it is quite promising to imagine a similar function, but specialized in music, in the style of what Spotify already offers and in which, according to leaks, Apple is also working on.

The music recommendations are, however, quite complex, to the point that it is much easier to be wrong than to be right. Now, we have already seen other services in the past that offered something similar, such as the very old Pandora. However, this is somewhat tricky, since although the service’s “stations” are generated automatically, there is undoubtedly some editorial work behind the operation of the service, and it is thanks to this that the recommendations are often so accurate.
As we read, the YouTube Music extension for Google Gemini You will have full access to our watch history, favorites, lists, etc.. I understand, of course, that this may sound a little worrying for those most concerned about their privacy, but on the other hand it is a key element so that the recommendations provided by the chatbot adjust as closely as possible to each person’s preferences. Thus, although at the moment there is no known date for its launch, and we do not know if it will debut in Spain from day one, I personally admit that I find it so interesting that I am looking forward to trying this extension.
