> Platforms like Arya — which says it’s been used by Home Depot and Dyson — go even further, using machine learning to find candidates based on data that might be available on a company’s internal database, public job boards, social platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn, and other profiles available on the open web, like those on professional membership sites.
I think we are going to come to a time where it does. I only hope that the algorithms will eventually recognize that the best things we say are always polarising, rather than seeking a bland conformity.
Polarising topics are usually very important. The things most people say about them add little value though. HN is IMO quite a bit better in that area. This is the only place where I sometimes skip a headline and read the comments on article to see if it's worth reading.
I wonder how many people here change what they say depending on whether it will get them more karma. Karma doesn't even do anything so I'm not sure why people would care.
This kind of light censorship is in some ways also dangerous because it shapes the discourse in a non obvious way, giving entities like the CCP control over the perceived consensus.
