This is very much part of the theory I have with https://leafle.org which uses a similar talk about books, find deeper patterns than the same author or people who read X also read Y, approach to suggest new ones.

I feel like books are an interesting one because the LLMs have ‘read’ so many of them and hence have substantial latent knowledge of them. My sense is that a profile built from books is maybe something that would generalise as well.

My observation from just talking to Claude and co about books is that they kind of wanted to collapse it all to a central explaining idea, which was interesting in a sort of horoscope like way, but just elided too much nuance and complexity to really be useful.
