Your point about human curation is well-made. I think that the SVODs could even have a human generate the header "If Jerry Bruckheimer was from South Korea", but then train some models to identify the titles to populate it. While Netflix makes a lot of mistakes with its content recommendations, scrolling through their homepage at least has this feel.

Further to your point though, there are two streamers where I watch the highest proportion of films they stream: Criterion Channel and MUBI. Why? They have human curated collections each month and they have a clear target audience for each of these of which I am a part.

Thanks for recommending Ashfall. That's right up my alley. It's nice to have something on Peacock besides English soccer and the Tour de France
