let's spend a few more minutes
our hidden agenda
of the link between
search
and might
before return to technology
an eloquent
so pagerank as we've seen is quite into it is
emi rely on it more and more
how does this
behavior of ours affect the accuracy of paid right
dissipate rented
because the use it more and more
the search
doesn't get worse
or are these two things
completely unrelated
let's think about it in this way
pagerank relies on hyperlinks between webpages
well why should we include hyperlinks in our web pages
where is the easier to just
google anything
increasingly
more and more people
outputting
fewer and fewer hyperlinks in the new material that they put up
this is bad for peter
we have fewer hyperlinks on the web
the accuracy of pagerank
gets worse and worse
the more we use beta ranks
the less we put in hyperlinks
and the more inaccurate a direct link it
not spouse of the reverse question
we find it hard to remember facts
so we increase and we use google
how does this effect
our ability to remember things is generally believed
that our memories rely upon
building associations between
words
incidents
facts
teachers these
being stranded
every time we traversed in doing acts of recall
in this case
the more we use google
to remember things the less we can remember because
we don't rumors our associations
as much as we did before
this is actually the argument made by nicholas car
in his two thousand ten polk
the shuttle's what the internet is doing to our brains
is there a positive side to the story
let's talk about the low fixed
meaner indexing
based on the works
and their parents and documents is quite poor at capturing deeper associations
between documents were sent concepts
however
when we searched and victories
documents
we also divulge information on their relatives relevance
of the senate results
in comparison
to our query
so for example if we click
on document which pagerank returns to us
we are revealing that we are actually interested
in that regard
result as opposed to others
exploiting such relevance feedback
from users
can actually improve search
can be used to opment
pagerank itself
so how we use
of suresh
itself
can be used to improve search
even while
he drinks regional of akhtar
might get less and less relevant
as we use fewer and fewer paperbacks
but what about
awesome our memories
exercising recall abilities is not the only time connections are built
between
synopsis anaprange
we using create fresh connections
when reasoning
about things as well
the reasoning relies on a lot of facts
and google provides these facts abundantly can't easily
encouraging more east and so building more and probably deeper associations
just think how much kisi research has become
when we can recall
facts
from google
rather than relying
on our own memories
well we should soon return
technology
and search
but hopefully this
diversion
into are hidden agenda
will spark some interesting discussions
on the forum
i'm looking forward to it
