All these rules determine what it shouldn't recommend. What rules would you use to determine what it should recommend?

Would you agree that these rules will quickly become unwieldy and a pain to maintain? And that these will be personalized to your taste but not to someone else's?

Wouldn't it be great if you didn't have to maintain those rules and if the system were tailored to every user? Congratulations, you've just realized you'd like to use ML/AI.

Based on the previous posts rules, for me it would be: Recommend anything else you have that's not excluded by those rules. And give me a "remove" like Amazon does and I'll be happy.

I don't actually want recommendations, I want a catalog with exclusions.

Eventually, you will be presented a blank page with a bit of text "You have consumed all of the internet. There is no more for you." You can read into that however dark you want to take it.
