In the algorithmic world, the act of interacting actively reshapes the systems associations closer to your embedding within them. Regularly listening to obscure tracks adds a bunch of my faves to their "recommended next" lists.
@mauve I think that this is my problem with them, that I am simply so eclectic and such an infrequent user that I’m illegible to them
@kevinr Yeah! And they keep making the search features worse so I can't even find the things I want directly anymore. 💀 Like, just let me do full text search without converting it to an embedding vector first amirite?
@mauve Why let you watch what you want when there's more money to be made in making you watch what they want
@mauve Perhaps the observer effect in quantum physics can be explained by archaean ad tracking systems 🤔
