Applications of NLP at Quora
- onurcel 10y agoAlthough they seem to be very interesting problems, they are merely NLP but AI problems. Quality is intrinsically subjective and what Quora needs is the community, or a very opinionated AI.
- xwowsersx 10y agoExcited to see some real code/techniques that Quora is using in future posts. I'm just getting into NLP (reading the NLTK book).
- vagabondvector 10y agoI was a little bit disappointed with the content feed. I was getting spammed by the same authors (I eventually blocked some authors which was a shame), or by the types of questions I didn't find interesting. When I picked a category as general as Food, I would constantly get questions and answers that weren't interesting and I couldn't find a way to say that it wasn't interesting. Eventually I left, although I've made hundreds of comments, questions and answers. Just didn't enjoy the time there anymore. It would be nice if there was some effort on personalizing. Currently, everything mentioned seems to be about content and not the user.
- alexellisuk 10y agoI keep reading NLP as Neuro-Linguistic Programming which has the same acronym... NLP is looking trendy at the moment on HN.
- askafriend 10y agoI loved GonzoHacker's explanation of Quora: "It was going to be something huge and it ended up a well moderated subreddit" https://twitter.com/GonzoHacker/status/721131562679422976 https://twitter.com/GonzoHacker/status/721131562679422976
