Hunch also has an impressive interface, designed by one Dr. Fake and her team. It is unique angle for finding information: decision trees and finding correlations between strange, simple questions that describe us as individuals. It also would be terrible for someone going through any sort of emotional/personality growth. As the person changes. so would the decision trees, causing radical shifts in the person’s profile. It would make the decisions shown by hunch too unpredicitable. This however, hopefull, is only a small percentage of the population. Apparently they have started to work on issue of emotional focal points with the final question (what is most important to you) but still, I wonder if identifying them, or focal points in general, much earlier one by rating the importance of the question, would affect the decision tree. That being said, choosing decision trees strike me as smart.
