"Unmasking Social Media Algorithms: The Impact on Culture and Influence"
In his new book "Filterworld," writer Kyle Chayka explores how social media algorithms have transformed content consumption, arguing that they have made us passive consumers and flattened our tastes. He discusses how algorithms impact artists, content creators, and journalism, and suggests that increased regulation of social media companies could mitigate their influence. Chayka also highlights the challenges of knowing what content others are seeing and how success on social media platforms determines opportunities in the arts and entertainment industry.
