Selecting news articles to read has become increasingly challenging in the era of artificial intelligence due to the overwhelming amount of content generated daily by diverse news outlets. With the rapid expansion of digital media, users are often inundated with choices, leading to decision fatigue and difficulties in finding content that aligns with their preferences. To address these challenges, we developed a cutting-edge recommendation system powered by generative AI, specifically leveraging the capabilities of diffusion models. Unlike traditional recommendation systems that rely heavily on textual or visual content, our approach focuses on analyzing user interaction patterns with news articles to generate personalized recommendations. This method minimizes the reliance on additional data modalities while maintaining high performance. The development of this system involved rigorous data preprocessing and transformation techniques, which were employed to enhance the model’s ability to understand and infer relationships between users and articles. By optimizing these processes, we ensured that the model could accurately capture the nuances of user behavior, improving the relevance and quality of the recommendations. Experimental evaluations demonstrated that our Diffusion model significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art models, such as FairGAN, across all major evaluation metrics, including precision, recall, and NDCG. This research not only highlights the potential of diffusion models in recommendation systems but also underscores their effectiveness in striking an optimal balance between exploration and exploitation in content delivery. This advantage is driven by the gradual refinement of the diffusion model results using probabilistic sampling. As a result, the model provides more relevant, diverse, and high-quality news recommendations, aimed at enhancing user experience and engagement.
