Altering User Recommendations Using Generative AI
Altering User Recommendations Using Generative AI
Abstract: Enhancing user experiences on video platforms such as YouTube requires personalised content discovery.
Repetitive or inappropriate suggestions are produced by current recom- mendation systems, which frequently rely on
engagement-based data. In order to provide a more individualised and distraction- free experience, this study presents an
innovative method that uses generative AI to optimise search queries and automate video navigation. The solution improves
content relevance, fil- ters distractions like Shorts, and expedites video selection by combining Google Cloud deployment,
Chrome Extension-based automation, and AI-driven query generation. The findings of the experiment show that the
suggested framework is effective in improving content recommendations, with 92% accuracy in query personalisation, 95%
success in automated navigation, and 98% accuracy in distraction filtering.
