Algorithms influence perception and beliefs
The article discusses the impact of algorithms on shaping the digital environment that users are exposed to daily, by analyzing their behaviors and preferences on social media platforms. It explains that algorithms organize content and suggest what aligns with users' interests, which can lead to the formation of a "filter bubble" that reduces exposure to opposing opinions and reinforces the belief that repeated views are correct. It also highlights how algorithms influence emotions and the interpretation of events, especially during crises, where negative content can evoke fear and anxiety, while trusted content fosters a sense of reassurance. The article emphasizes the importance of users being aware of the need to verify content, diversify sources, and educate children on critical thinking, in order to limit the impact of digital repetition on our understanding of the world.
