Ranking the results is a prerequisite for any search engine, and that's interpretation, isn't it?
- lottin 2y agoNo, I wouldn't say that. I mean they could try to influence what sources I check first, but I'm the one doing the interpretation.
- esafak 2y agoSo summarization is interpretation but ranking and filtering are not. Most would disagree.
- lottin 2y agoI don't think anyone can disagree. If you ask someone to give you an interpretation of the works of, say, Allen Ginsberg, or of the theory of relativity, and they come back with a pile of documents ordered in some fashion, you won't be satisfied because that's not what you asked for.
