When AI goes bad….

I have to admit that I’m a sucker for “people who liked this, liked that recommendations”.

I have recently changed my online book provider (mostly) from Amazon to New Zealand’s own Fishpond because I feel like I should support the local guys.  The biggest thing that I miss though is the recommendations based on my buying history.  So one might think that the next best thing is when a book is bundled with a similar or related title and presented for one great price….

As our 6 year old grows up the picture books that we used to read at bedtime are no longer holding the same appeal so I wondered if it was time for something more sophisticated.  Perhaps a bit of Roald Dahl.

Here is the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory bundled with The Combat History of German Heavy Anti-Tank Unit 653 in World War II!!!!  I swear this owes nothing to my browsing or purchasing history.
