What, so like, "as an early thirty-something who just found out you're about to become a father, you may enjoy films X, Y, Z"? To really get people's life chapters and such you'd have to have massive metadata about them beyond the scope of a video service. Google/FB could do it, though.
- wfn 11y agoIt was more a comment about how considerations such as this make collaborative recommendation systems precisely less useful. Regarding rec.systems that move beyond naive rating/like intersections between users (such as e.g. Jaccard similarity index), I think there could be interesting algorithms developed that make use of assigned/curated item tags together with collaborative filtering/recommendations (e.g. something that last.fm has considered (or has been considering) - there's an entire field of research for just music recommendation systems.)
