Interesting. Just for context Autonomy (now part of HP) built this cool app called Kenjin back in the 90s it used Bayesian inference applied to your browsing session to suggest content.

As a statistician by training, I appreciate how the traditional inference techniques were helpful way before LLMs became mainstream for these tasks :)
