The brilliance of this post is not in the fact that a AI program can beat another AI program, but if a human conceivable algorithm of this length can beat the raw cognitive power of human users itself. I would be seriously diggin this.

perhaps it is. Look at the fee, its outrageous for any long term business. 12% profit margin anyone? This definitely smells like a attempt to draw in fresh startups/people with loose pockets. But it is not as bad, as I make it sound.

Aside from the main debate, I'm a bit surprised to not find visual representation of the said data. No pie charts, flow charts or bar diagrams :/ In my opinion that is a very inefficient way to talk about demographics.
