youtube also uses browser fingerprinting and ip address for recommendations, it doesn't seem they included this in their experiment, so each walk would be influenced by previous walks.
i find the autoplay on youtube combined with the deep learning for recommendations to be an odd combination...the ai is basically reinforcing itself if the user doesn't do anything. you get a situation where the user can walk away from the computer and the AI assumes the user liked all these videos it played. soundcloud downloader
