I think technology itself is enabler here. Airlines have to figure how to price the convenience of video calls vs privacy/solitude/disturbances to the co-passengers. i think having dedicated video call booths priced per 5 min chunks can address the issue.

yeah, there is a definite asymmetry for sure. Bad guys have to get it right once and good guys have to get it right everytime.

Eugene mentions that the algorithm is the one that built this latent interest graph and this algorithm itself is worth a lot of money. Given that most personalization is using ML/Deep Learning and various video features like scene descriptions, object identification in each scene etc, Is it really that proprietary to warrant this level of premium. Once the awareness of interest graph could be built to this level of efficiency using usual techniques, Is the algorithm and approach exclusive to TikTok ?

Awesome Insights from Eugene !!
