While algorithms themselves aren't inherently evil, their potential misuse raises concerns. The absence of algorithms in the mentioned context underscores the responsibility humans bear to act as moral algorithms. Algorithms in digital spaces, if not ethically designed and monitored, can indeed manipulate or "brainwash" people by curating content that reinforces preexisting beliefs. Nurturing these qualities ensures that human actions, both online and offline, counteract algorithmic pitfalls, helping individuals and society resist undue influence and making responsible choices for themselves and others.

This is just how people always communicate, no?

Speak about common interests, share cool shit, follow people they value, express gratitude, push out value back for Sats and status..

It's cool out here. Algos are useful to recommend music on Spotify not to intermediate conversations.

No... It is not "just how people communicate" It's how the masses are manipulated and others are censored.

If I use a question tag it makes me correct, no? 🙄
