Watch this scene: https://youtu.be/LXaHbJhKWLc https://youtu.be/LXaHbJhKWLc I think that what he says pretty much applies to almost everything that seems sophisticated to us such as health tech, privacy tech, fin tech, anti-terrorism tech and of course user behavior prediction tech. A lot of people are convinced that what these companies do is highly sophisticated and very difficult to achieve in terms of algorithmics. Most of the things that look sophisticated are just mediocre at most, with a handful of companies just having successfully delivered on a handful of problems and pretending to have solved many others. One of the reasons I suspect i they're failing at so many things is that these companies have focused extensively on hiring the brightest minds to solve the most difficult problems they had to solve 10-15 years ago. During all this time they failed at solving simple problems that do not require the brightest minds in the world but just people who actually can discuss with other people and solve simple problems with their technologies. You're perfectly legitimate in hoping that YouTube would have solved these problems but no, they haven't, they're actually quite weak at solving many simple things and it is crucial that the large audience doesn't realize that.
