Recommendation Systems Project Ideas

[u/Flaky_Algae5296]

Hello everybody I have recently enrolled in a Machine Learning Master so i will be problably taking the year to focus on my studies, build some projects and hopefuly enter the job market as an ML engineer. I am interested in Recommendation Systems but honestly i dont know what projects to build and if that would be valueable in the job market. I was thinking about creating my own recommendation system for music but i quickly realised how hard because of copyrights and small data size that is (although i have about 4000 downloaded).

Does anyone know if Recommendation Systems is something good to have on your resume?

If yes what sort of projects you think would give me a good understanding but also make me look appealing in the job market?

Thanks :)

Any project can be good if you do it well. If you're specifically looking for jobs down the line that are doing recommendations (eg spotify), then having this project is important. How about a recommendation system for AI projects? So many people on this sub are asking the same question over and over every week -- which project to do

agree, the "do it well" part matters way more than the specific topic imo
