Dinesh Vadhia - Popping your Filter Bubble

PyData London Meetup #47
Tuesday, August 14, 2018

Conventional recommendation services like Netflix, News Feeds, Spotify and in commerce trap you in a filter bubble. A watched movie continues to be suggested; new items do not appear immediately; you cannot interact with the results to improve personal relevance; data security and privacy is abused. The AI has all the control leaving you open to behavioural manipulation.

Thingy pops the bubble to give people control of their AI.

The talk will walk through why Thingy solves the problems of conventional recommendation engines and show example results.

Sponsored & Hosted by Man AHL
