Yup, this is the problem. There is no centralised log of what people bought, which is what you'd need to actually fix this problem.

- joshspankit 6y agoA good argument, but it happens on Amazon when the search, research, and purchase were all on Amazon.
- htrp 6y agoML is pretty shitty at causal inference
- rchaud 6y agoYup, I get "buy it again" prompts on nearly all of my recent purchases, even when they are all durable goods that don't expire or require restocking, like say a tablet case.
- disgruntledphd2 6y agoHmmm, that's really weird. It's probably an edge case that would be complicated to change in that case (never underestimate the power of inertia, especially in ML systems).
- joshspankit 6y agoI feel like it might be almost trivially solved with a “buyer only needs one [for X months/years?]” property on the items. It would likely have to be added by a human, but still: there are a relatively small number of items that people only need one of.
