The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q Well, what, but, but this is critical to why you're in the space. You're, you're hinting around something. Say it directly. I mean, what is the current space doing that you don't like?

A I would say the quality of the recommendations, um, you know, and even our recommendations need to get better. It's, um, you know, I mean, when it comes down to it, it's, uh, you know, the, the reason why we exist is to create an open internet, and we look at this, it's, um, you know, you have sites like Facebook, sites like Google. I mean, they're, they're powering 49% of all internet advertising. And when we look at this, it's, uh, there needs to be some hope. There needs to be an independent third party, uh, that can actually help bring news and media companies out there and get, get people an opportunity to just have different ideas. Because right now, when you look at ideas, if all your ideas are dependent on one or two companies in the algorithm, I mean, literally, if your ideas are not liked by that algorithm, they're dead, they're gone. And what happens? I mean, you talk about new businesses, you talk about anything. It's like, I feel like nobody's really fighting back enough. And, and that's, that's the bigger picture. And when we look at that, you know, what does it mean to do that? It's, it means better personalization. It means that we need to actually truly understand who our users are. Uh, we need to be able to give, um, you know, give users the content they want. And I would say it's, uh, you know, you don't have to look very far. I mean, it's, uh, you know, it's…
