These human TV and movie picks trounce Netflix’s algorithm

Recent studies show that people often prefer human-curated TV and movie selections over the algorithmic recommendations from Netflix and similar services. Despite the sophisticated algorithms, viewers frequently find themselves scrolling aimlessly through suggested content that doesn't quite hit the mark. This insight suggests that human intuition might be more effective than automated systems when it comes to matching viewers with content they genuinely enjoy. It raises questions about how streaming platforms can better align with viewer preferences.
