I watched the video. What did you think he said that was interesting?
"Putting an extreme bias on certain sites. For example CNN is one of the most commonly used in Google news." That ok? At the same time while CNN is sinking in viewership and it's obvious how biased it is.
Dumb.
Why?
Search is driven by Indexing content, SEO techniques implemented by sites, personalization, and contextualization parameters at the time of search. Saying ādonald trumpā surfaces CNN 20% of the time is just dumb. What if CNN has tagged every single new article with Donald Trump keyword!? What if Donald Trump was trending topic at the time of search (oh wait - when is it not! ), what if CNN page load speed is lightning fast than any one else, what if CNN has better site map than any others out there that interlinks content, and there are million other what ifs that need to be controlled for before saying Google Search is biased. Pfft... statistics 201, SEO 101. I am pretty sure no one goes into Google algorithm and tunes CNNs hyperparameter higher in favor. It all depends on how good the site performs and those set of parameters are tuned by CNN themselves, not Google. Other sites failed to do their job and blame google that they donāt rank well. Some msft dude commented below about him having cursory knowledge then heās qualified to speak - all of this above that I mentioned is just barely scratching the cursory knowledge.
Do you work in Bing
Bing is supreme pron search engine though
Jeez. Is Microsoft filled with such lunatics?
No we just arenāt filled with SJW š sucker. Works out aināt it?
I don't know dude. Amazon has plenty of conservatives who come across as rational people. But whenever there's a post from a Microsoft conservative, it comes off as a reactionary loon's ravings.
In b4 "administrative leave"
lol @ project veritas
This guy doesn't even work on search.
That is a lame excuse which might work on the brain dead lemmings in the world, but not on anyone with any sort of logical thought.
Lolwat
Can't believe people are donating to this What did he think was going to happen by speaking to the press, unauthorized? All tech companies are really clear on this.
Itās bizarre. He has a theory without any proof. He works on assistant, not search. Search is personalized. Different people will see different things. I do believe google results in an echo chamber, but thatās based on user behavior. Canāt see him returning to google.
@google where do you stand on this?
Deafening silence
