Personalization Evolution
Old Model
- • Flat metadata (genre, cast, director)
- • Simple ML recommendations
- • Passive suggestions
- • User must browse and decide
2026 Model
- • Emotional scene analysis
- • Multi-dimensional user profiles
- • Agentic orchestration
- • AI makes micro-decisions

Multi-Dimensional User Profiles
Modern personalization uses hundreds of real-time data points:
- Skip behavior — what content types users skip
- Search queries — what they're looking for
- Hover time — interest signals before clicking
- Trailer opt-outs — content that didn't appeal
- Time of day — viewing context
