Tired that (machine learning) suggestions in Amazon, Youtube, Instagram and other sites mean showing me more of the same. Is this the fabulous AI revolution?

Yes, I like photos of food, but I can also enjoy other types of photos and until I don't start searching for them, Instagram (or whatever service) doesn't list them. What a great AI!

I understand, no data can create predictions. But tastes are so depending of the context you grow up in that it is normal not to be able to predict that. And that uniqueness is what makes a person great.
