Episode: Chayka’s “Filterworld” and What We Lose When the Algorithms Dictate What We See and Hear
Description: James Keys and Tunde Ogunlana discuss Kyle Chayka’s “Filterworld: How Algorithms Flattened Culture,” the 2024 book that looks at where the recommendation algorithms that control what we consume on services like Instagram, TikTok, Netflx and Spotify came from, how they work to change us and the trajectory of our culture, what we may be losing from a personal and cultural standpoint as we continue to hand over so much of our decision making on what we see to them.
