Netflix has either gotten stupider in the last month, or way too smart for its own good. As evidence, I submit to you the screenshot below:
Netflix is correct that I did enjoy Delicatessen, MST3K: The Brain That Wouldn’t Die, and Rashomon. And Netflix is also correct that I would enjoy Homestarrunner: Everything Else: Vol. 1. But what crazy algorithms are they using to come up with this conclusion?
The conclusion is dead on. It is just very hard to believe that Netflix came to this conclusion all on its own.
I think, perhaps, it is trying to seem smarter than it is. Like the guy wearing his German army fatigues in the art house theater laughing loudly at Dr. Strangelove so everyone knows that he “gets it.”
Netflix either came to this correct conclusion by error, or it is going to enslave mankind any day.
eerie….
