> We do all the painstaking work of understanding the reviews on TripAdvisor and similar sites How will you scale this? How will you customize results per user

  > How will you scale this? We are looking at building a classifier that classifies reviews collected through TripAdvisor's content API and Google's search API. We want to cross-match the classification results, against the ratings (very crude, but a good way to start I guess). > How will you customize results per user? We would build packages that meet the user's preferences (which are subjective - we would learn these over time due to the cold start problem) and rank them appropriately, based on a large set of parameters. This, I suppose, would be a very nascent version of Amazon's A9 or Google search ranking. We will try our best to keep learning and improving based on the users' interactions. > What experience do you have building AIs? I haven't developed any in-production AI. I wrote a few AI programs for my AI course. Wrote a few classifiers to participate in big data competitions. I also wrote one such AI program to build bundled packages as part of experiments for my paper (https://www.computer.org/csdl/proceedings/icdmw/2012/4925/00/4925a843.pdf https://www.computer.org/csdl/proceedings/icdmw/2012/4925/00...).
