“I want it to give me 1-2 events that I am most likely to enjoy.“ That's the core property of voice interfaces and I see surprisingly little awareness for that: it does not matter if it's a phone menu beep code tree or a GPT or a star trek ship's computer: the low bandwidth linearity of the readout will never go away. This is what makes voice interfaces so hugely attractive for the "searchy advertisial complex": if you haven't bought enough ads that the almighty relevance algorithm (1) puts you in the top spot you're out. What used to be the first page on the web is the top spot in voice, second place is first loser. No amount of intelligence can ever change that, voice interface implies handing over control in an unprecedented way. ((1) technically, claims that result ranks are not sold aren't exactly lies, when result ranks don't go to the highest bidder. But that does not mean that ad spend isn't a contributing signal in any number of deeper layers so in the end results appear indistinguishable from highest bidder, only that buyers don't get any contractually guaranteed result list exposure for their money)
