Sinopse
Online retailers may be shooting themselves in the tail -- the long tail that is according to Kartik Hosanagar Wharton professor of operations and information management and Dan Fleder a Wharton doctoral candidate in new research on the ”recommenders” that many of these retailers use on their websites. Recommenders -- perhaps the best known is Amazon’s -- tend to drive consumers to concentrate their purchases among popular items rather than allow them to explore and buy whatever piques their curiosity the two scholars suggest in a working paper titled ”Blockbuster Culture’s Next Rise or Fall: The Impact of Recommender Systems on Sales Diversity.” See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
