The Netflix Prize is an episode in the history of one of the leading names when it comes to AI. Its best-known use of the technology is recommending what to watch next. But that’s only a small piece of how it uses AI. Like others, it uses AI & sophisticated analytics across the organisation.
It’s been at the leading edge of AI for many years. But in 2009 Netflix inadvertently scored a high profile AI own-goal. This was the Netflix Competition, something they’d run since 2006.
