"A new study published today in
Nature has found that X’s algorithm – the
hidden system or “recipe” that governs which posts appear in your feed and in
which order – shifts users’ political opinions in a more conservative
direction.
Led by Germain Gauthier from Bocconi University in Italy, it is a rare,
real-world randomised experimental study on a major social media platform. And
it builds on a growing body of research that shows how these platforms can
shape people’s political attitudes."
Via Muse.
