Scary? Hardly. Most of the time Spotify's recommended music is just other songs by my favorite artists that I've already listened to 100x, on their platform. If they can't predict what I will like outside of the artists/genres I already listen to, I doubt they can make any predictions based on infinitely more noisy data points.
They can't even differentiate artists with the same fucking name.
