I mean, maybe it's not worse though. Maybe others would find what the other guy wants too narrow. There's a tension between only playing stuff you are 100% going to like and actually introducing you to stuff you haven't listened to.

That's exactly what makes it worse, though. They currently have to choose more globally, it's not that personalized. in the human-curated world others would get different things. I know they don't like Slipknot, I know you do, I give you each different recommendations. Spotify's code hasn't shown the ability to learn "me" vs it's view of what the "average me" would like.


Can't you refine your results by telling it to stop recommending an artist?
