What about it?

The contest in my mind, on a slightly more abstract layer, is between manual
labor vs. automation, the latter offering better scalability, speed,
cost-effectiveness, maintainability, etc. To that extent, algorithmic search
is often augmented by various forms of weighting, filtering, bias, etc., as
Google tweaks theirs from time to time.
