Re:Spotify’s Discover Weekly: How machine learning finds new... by iamseiko on Wednesday October 11, 2017 @03:13PM (#15452488)
This is the problem I have had with it. Last month I decided to check out some Latino music from Columbia after a recommendation, and my Discover Weekly playlist after that started to get populated with almost all Portugeze songs and Brazillian artists. I did find some great songs in them too, but I would have preferred more Latino music. It was disappointing that their model is not able to properly disambiguate between two popular, yet distinct languages/genres.
