This is great to hear, though I'm curious why photos on your phone / pinterest would be relevant to a recommendation system? Surely the biggest signal would be what Spotify already uses: the features of various relevant factors (your previous listening sessions, your current session, what other similar sessions look like, etc.), that said, their recommendation system is surprisingly terrible given how much easier music recommendations must be versus video, yet YouTube seems to have had this nailed for 15+ years whereas Spotify's "Discover Weekly" is so bad.

> I come up with an idea of generating playlists from images. Images that you shot on your phone yourself, or that you found on Pinterest, or a painting that you really like and feel inspired by.

This is genuinely interesting! Do you send the images to an LLM with a prompt like "generate a list of songs that would go well with this"?
