About this episode
Where did recommender systems come from, and how do we know when they're actually working? In part one of Data Skeptic's three-part Recommender Systems finale, Kyle traces the field from collaborative filtering and the Netflix Prize to matrix factorization and modern approaches, while exploring why accuracy alone can't capture what makes a recommendation useful, surprising, or meaningful.
