Deep learning is not statistical aggregation, but still wouldn't solve the very example OP and I are talking about.

Deep learning is not smart nor is able to replace actual ears and understanding of music. Even a random recommendation system would be able to surprise once in a while.

Personally, I think Spotify's system is terrible and gives me a good suggestion every 100 wrong ones.

True. And because there is no way to "measure" the quality, if you say it is now horrible your you, I'll take your word for it.

I don't believe in "General AI", But this is not a binary outcome. It WILL get better. How much? We'll see.
