One of those things I like about YT is that it recommends topics similar to what you search for - so I get a lot of globally popular high-protein diet recipes I would not have otherwise known it existed let alone where to look for. Unfortunately, it does too much of it and it gets overwhelming, and that's when the term “algo” gets popular.

The thing is, every source code has its algorithm. Algorithms are just step-by-step instructions. The ones that tend to psychology affect you in ways you did not allow them to are what becomes red alert 🔴 and that picked up on the branding name “algo”.

What would be ideal is if you could train your algo to be your butler, your personal assistant. You can do something similar with an AI-based system - you either let it control you, or you control it - so long as the system’s backend is not tuned to propagate the answers that someone else wants it to be.

If the social media side can give you the topics you enjoy, then it's going to be a big win. But there are 2 things to this, well 3. One is that the UI UX has to be engaging enough for users to want to train their algo because it's a new concept to them. Second, the system itself has to be smart. Third, someone has to build it - with users in mind - and keep tuning it with user feedback until it reaches an optimal level
