Hyper-personalisation Part 2.

Welcome to THINK-IN Vol. 1

 

Hyper-personalisation. Part 2.

 

Following on from part one of hyper-personalisation, we’re now looking at the outputs from the second group [See part 1 for more information].

How can we deliver seamless, personalised experiences without crossing the line on privacy and ethics?

Let’s get into it.

Eliminating the filter bubble in hyper-personalisation is crucial for better discovery, diversity, and user engagement. Here are three strategic solutions:

Algorithmic Serendipity

Instead of only reinforcing past behavior, introduce controlled randomness in recommendations.
🔹 Blend personalised content with new, unexpected suggestions.
🔹 Use multi-dimensional AI models that factor in novelty and diversity rather than just relevance.
🔹 Example: A mobility app could suggest alternative routes, eco-friendly transit, or nearby experiences, not just the usual commute.

User-Controlled Personalisation

Give users transparency and control over their recommendations.
🔹 Implement adjustable personalisation settings where users can widen or narrow their interest scope.
🔹 Show why certain content is recommended and allow users to tweak their preferences.
🔹 Example: A retail app could let users toggle between “familiar” and “explore” modes to break their shopping habits.

Cross-Domain Data Integration

Expand personalization beyond single-domain behaviour tracking.
🔹 Instead of basing recommendations on just past purchases or trips, integrate broader lifestyle data (while respecting privacy).
🔹 Example: A payment provider could suggest local businesses, experiences, or mobility options based on spending patterns—helping users break out of their usual choices.

Here’s a LinkedIn post tackling the filter bubble problem with Algorithmic Serendipity. 

Are algorithms making us predictable? 

Hyper-personalization should enhance our experiences—not trap us in the same cycle. Yet, most algorithms do just that. 

🚨 Always the same coffee order.
🚨 Always the same commute route.
🚨 Always the same content. 

Welcome to the filter bubble. 🔄 

Personalization shouldn’t be a loop—it should be a launchpad. Here’s how we break free: 

🔹 Blend AI-driven randomness into recommendations—so users discover new paths, shops, or mobility options.
🔹 Factor in novelty—not just past behaviour. A mobility app could suggest scenic routes, bike-share options, or co-working cafés nearby.
🔹 Let users control their feed—a toggle between “familiar” and “explore” modes gives them power over their own experiences. 

Hyper-personalization should be a guide, not a cage. 

Where’s the balance between relevance and discovery? Let’s discuss. 👇
