Will Waymo support playing from Spotify without the Google Assistant app before 2026?

YES

To play from Spotify, you need to download Google Assistant and tell it “Play [specific music] on Waymo”. Funnily enough this is all I use Assistant for and my history is just dozens of these commands.

This resolves YES if I can play an arbitrary track from Spotify on a Waymo trip without the Assistant app being installed on my phone.

@GleamingRhino I’ve been on this site for years and this is the first time anyone thought it’s bad etiquette to take remaining liquidity when resolving.

@bence Many people view it as bad practice to bet on your own markets, and there has been a significant movement to try and have that ability removed entirely. I don't agree with that stance, but I do think it can cause problems with conflict of interest. At the very least, I think snapping up all the liquidity in your own market based on personal non-public info is a bit sleazy. Doubly so since it's ranked.

@GleamingRhino besides me disagreeing that it’s sleazy (the mana would just be burned otherwise), how is this personal non-public info? It’s the same waymo as everyone can use. If i was not the creator and I randomly sit in a waymo how is it any more fair to use that information to earn mana? And when has manifold ever disliked trading even on insider information?

@bence the resolution criteria were if “I” could play Spotify tracks in a Waymo. Nobody other than you knows if that is the case or not. Also, Waymo has limited service areas, so even if I wanted to spend all day stalking Waymos for streaming integration I could not.

Manifold does not outright prohibit insider trading, but again betting on one’s own markets is frowned upon by many (especially when a profit is guaranteed, such as in this case). That said, I can subjectively decide it is something I do not enjoy from market creators and rate accordingly.
