Where is the source? The article links to nothing but a Facebook post. The whole thing was a joke that several Chinese companies made during this year's Apirl's Fool Day.

It is a very lame joke, though.


Me too. It seems to depend on browser. I did not pass on Chrome but pass after switching to Safari.


Very weird! I just tried in Safari and all I had to do was tick a checkbox as opposed to identifying pancakes and street signs in Chrome.


Have you tried selecting the "warrior" mode? The same thing happened to me but after I selected "warrior" mode, recommendations popped up.

Edit: It seems that the "wizard" mode is updated daily or so.


Same here. The wizard mode seems broken. As soon as I rated more than a handful of movies it started showing 0 recomendations.


It seems that recommendations by the "wizard" mode are updated daily or so. I signed up yesterday and got nothing with the wizard mode. It starts to show promising results just now I checked.


You'd think that they wouldn't make it the default mode then. Or at least warn the user.

Regardless what the root cause is the end result is that it's broken from a user perspective.
