...which have been filtered by publishers deciding which manuscripts to publish, a past consumer deciding which book to buy, AND a used bookstore deciding which books to purchase for resale
..which is filtered much like the used books
... and then later filtered by YOU from the thousands of items in the store.
Why would you want to perform the role of the professional editor anyways? They already went through millions of items to get you those last few thousands of items to you.
Editing is a full-time job, why should consumers do that for themselves?
And, if you can't find products from a selection of professionally edited products, then your sense of taste isn't going to work with other people.
We need to trust editors and human filters more, not less, because they know whats better for you than you know yourself, and certainly better than algorithms.
Algorithms have always been terrible at making taste. This is why a real radio station with a human DJ is always better then the algorithmic radio services. Every time I try to listen to an algorithmic station, I have to turn it off, since they're so bad, even when given my existing playlists.
And can you imagine how bad a fashion magazine would be if it were algorithmically determined?
