- thaumasiotes 7y agoThis is an interesting question of what context titles should be evaluated in. If your model is "pick a title, and then predict how it will do", with the title being an independent variable, then the overwhelmingly negative assessment is quite correct. Most of the time, Stephen Hawking (or any other celebrity) hasn't just died, and that title would be a lie or a hoax. To predict these obituary articles better, you'd need to build in an assumption that the content of the title was true, which would cause a lot of problems in the general case.
