  • 构建可执行的意图层,融合显式、隐含、否定和复合意图生成推荐计划。
  • 在300个测试请求中精确相关率高达94.4%,优于基线1.11个合格候选。
  • 适合关注推荐精度与用户意图对齐的工程团队和产品设计者。

搜索与推荐虽共享发现目标,但意图表达方式不同。本文研究在Threads平台部署的Dear Algo系统,通过开放性请求如“更多NBA新闻”或“减少政治内容”,引导后续推荐流而非返回单一结果列表。其代理式意图层将显式、推断、否定及复合意图整合为可执行计划,并调用传统检索与可选语义或跨模态重排序。该层共享意图到检索的契约,无需统一模型或服务路径即可覆盖搜索与推荐模式。在以精度优先为目标的评估下,300个公开请求-物品对盲审中(296个有效),严格分类的LLM裁判门达到94.4%精确相关率(88.8%, 98.9%)。在72个归一化请求簇中,完整配置每20个槽位产出7.73个裁判合格候选,高于基线6.61,提升1.11(0.12, 2.12)。在仅限重排序路径前72小时的候选随机化服务研究中,用户加权裁判无关占比降至2.80%(基线4.78%),下降1.97点(-3.02, -0.94);精确相关占比高出2.24点(0.08, 4.41)。整体表明,在精度优先框架下,自然语言意图可有效融入推荐系统。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Search and recommendation serve a shared discovery objective but encode intent differently. We study this boundary through Dear Algo on Threads, a deployed product where open-ended requests such as \emph{more NBA news} or \emph{less politics} steer subsequent feed recommendations rather than return a one-shot result list. Its agentic intent layer compiles explicit, inferred, negative, and compound intent into a grounded executable plan, then invokes conventional retrieval and optional semantic or multimodal reranking. The layer shares an intent-to-retrieval contract without requiring one model or serving path across search-like and recommendation-like modes. We evaluate Dear Algo under a precision-first objective. In a blinded audit of 300 public request-item pairs (296 evaluable), a strict categorical LLM-as-a-judge gate achieved 94.4\% exact-Relevant precision [88.8\%, 98.9\%]. Across 72 normalized request clusters, the full configuration produced 7.73 judge-qualified candidates per 20 slots versus 6.61 for an LLM-derived-query baseline, a gain of 1.11 [0.12, 2.12]. In a candidate-randomized serving-path study restricted to the reranker path's first 72 eligible hours, the user-weighted judge-Irrelevant share among judged admissions was 2.80\% versus 4.78\% off (-1.97 points [-3.02, -0.94]), while Exact-Relevant share was 2.24 points higher [0.08, 4.41]. Together, these studies show how explicit natural-language intent can be carried into feed recommendation under a precision-first evaluation framework
