Are you aware of anyone experimenting with the automatic evolution of web pages?
For example, use genetic programming to periodically modify the page served up. Both pages are served up, A/B style, and the page which has the highest metric (eg. $ earned) survives. Repeat.
It would be interesting to see what the results are after an extended period of time.

- zackzackzack 15y agoHaving played with genetic algorithms before, that is a hugely interesting idea to me. You would need to take special care on the types of mutations used though. I don't think it is possible to do it well at scale, but it would be very impressive nonetheless.
