What is the false positive acceptance rate at Google?

Great article:

False positives aren`t an algo fault because it was/is designed to have false positives because the algo wants to mimic humans.

This is not what Micah said, just my brain dump from reading the article. What are your thoughts? http://www.micahfk.com/data-marketeer/google-machine-learning-mimic-human-pattern-recognition/

    I'm back in the new year with an SEO musing post around Google's preference towards machine learning.

  • Micah Fisher-Kirshner: And, if you want to turn this into a question, when we criticize Google for this, are we being fair to them for trying to emulate humans and what we do in day to day life?
