Netflix Investigates Mood-Based Recommendations in Its Newest Personalization Push


Bradley Cooper and his fiancée, Gigi Hadid, are ready to start a family.

According to Closer Magazine, the 49-year-old actor is already looking for rings and maybe a bassinet just four months after they began dating.

An insider told the newspaper that the Hangover star believes he has “hit the jackpot” with the beauty.

“He’s now openly talking about ring shopping and saying she’s The One. It’s a shock for his friends because they never saw this coming,” they said.

According to the tipper, Cooper and Hadid are “open about wanting to settle down and have more kids.”

Notably, Cooper already has a daughter with ex Irina Shayk, while Hadid has a 3-year-old daughter Khai with former One Direction member Zayn Malik.

Last October, the couple was spotted together for the first time, over dinner in New York City.

Over the next few months, the couple vacationed together several times, and the Maestro actor even purchased a house near her family farm in Pennsylvania.

The streaming giant may soon have an answer for your mood. The firm is apparently testing a tool that proposes programs based on how you’re feeling, which has the potential to revolutionize how we traverse the ever-expanding content library.

Gone are the days of scrolling through interminable rows of titles. Imagine being stressed out after a long day and being immediately presented with a carefully prepared collection of lighter comedy or soothing documentaries. Looking for a good cry? Netflix might recommend tearjerkers or dramas known to elicit strong emotional responses.

This interesting breakthrough follows Netflix’s experimentation with time-based recommendations, which tailored suggestions to the time of day. They’re now taking it a step further by diving into user emotions. However, the specific implementation remains unknown.

How will Netflix understand your mood?

While information are scant, multiple options exist. Potential techniques include integrating with mood-tracking apps, evaluating watching habits, and directly questioning people about their emotional condition. Balancing user privacy and accurate mood recognition will be critical.

If Netflix can overcome these ethical and technical challenges, it may usher in a new era of content discovery, making our viewing experience more intuitive and emotionally engaging.

So, the next time you are unsure, Netflix might simply ask, “How are you feeling today?”

It is crucial to remember that this feature is currently in development, and there is no official debut date yet.
