I am a user who doesn't appreciate when a system "guesses" what I might like. The use of that word makes me nervous for myself as a user and for a client of mine where "guessing" may just not be reliable or accurate enough, leading to more frustration.
If the guessing also is based on click that the user makes as part of a basic site exploration and not something they might wish to be guesses on (like when I get Amazon recommendations when I was just clicking around looking for random things I don't plan to ever buy), that serves to confuse the interface rather than customize it for the user in a meaningful way.
