Anghami’s new features allow users to create their own personalised podcasts.
Music streaming platform Anghami has announced the launch of its first-of-its-kind AI-powered personalised podcast and first-ever daily news podcast – Anghami AI Newsroom – generated solely by artificial intelligence.
With Anghami’s new personalised podcast feature, users will be able to build their own podcasts based on topics they choose, available through a forthcoming premium subscription tier.
Topics range from local and global news, to music, sports, technology, business, and more. Users can select their preferred voices, choose from a variety of languages, including English, Arabic, and French, and tailor their own podcast description and title to enhance personalisation. Anghami’s AI then crafts a podcast specifically tailored to their interests.
Anghami AI Newsroom is a daily news podcast produced solely by artificial intelligence, without human intervention. The podcast autonomously researches and curates relevant topics, delivers concise summaries, and records content in multiple languages, thus acting as its own editor. Fresh episodes are released every morning on Anghami, recapping the news from the previous day. Angami utilises its existing algorithms that identify popular and emerging songs and feeds that information to its AI system, which generates music news segments containing the latest updates and trends.
The new feature is powered by OpenAI’s GPT models, utilising a diverse array of trusted sources from both regional and international outlets.
Speaking about the new launch, Elie Habib, co-Founder of Anghami, said: “We are excited to introduce this cutting-edge feature enabling users to personalise their daily content and curate a unique audio journey. This is a testament to our ongoing commitment to innovation and delivering exceptional user experiences. Our use of AI technology allows us to deliver accurate news updates in multiple languages tailored to our audience’s preferences. This is a significant milestone for Anghami and the audio streaming industry in the MENA region.”
