I thought this said looksMaxing at first and had to do a double take

took only a few checks for me to come to the conclusion that the setup has the age-old heavy bias towards beauty standards. I.e., if customers are black or Asian, hotness ranking goes down.

No, the setup doesn’t. It’s aggregating people’s behaviors and preferences. People appear to have a preference; whether it’s good or bad, natural or ingrained, or some combination thereof, is a matter for discussion.

Why is 2/3 of LA restaurant visited by "old" people per this map?

I assume it's a racial thing and the AI could not really detect the age correctly?

In NY the Irish pubs are tagged as old, which kinda makes sense.

Another bias can be who leaves reviews.

This sounds like the opening premise of a 90's romcom.

I love how quick people are to dismiss the obvious technical skill involved in making something like this, just because of the off-color premise.

Who's dismissing the obvious technical skill?

Given that we're talking about NY, shouldn't it be Hot Dog (Stand) or Not?

It's missing large parts of LA.
