This, so very much.
I bought a LaserJet printer. I went into my "Recommended for me" and the first four pages were probably 30% other printers, and 30% printer supplies (for my printers and others).
How is this still a problem?

This is the fallacy of machine learning: these systems aren't smart, they're incredibly dumb.
They also know which printer it was, when it was bought, and presumably they could know how long printers last, if not how long that specific printer lasts.
The first is certainly enough not to recommend supplies for a different printer.

Here, I agree. They're generally no smarter than the people programming them.. reminiscent of any computer system.
