I want to train it to give me communist content, news, culture discussion from the leftist perspective, ect…basically this site. Never used it before so I’m asking before I do anything on it so I don’t mess it up with the initial searches or anything.
Honestly anything is possible with social media, the only way we know how algorithms work is by trying to reverse engineer them. Companies don't really publish how they work as it's a trade secret.
Exactly. All we know for sure is that it is driven by 'engagement' and that basically means all of the old tabloid tricks are also on the table alongside the newer digital engagement models that were pioneered by sites like Gawker, and we know based on interviews that Gawker used outrage as one of its primary engagement models.
TikTok loves a rabbithole but it will constantly push other stuff just to keep testing if you want to engage with the other side of the spectrum.
That’s true, glad I made the thread though. Learning a lot of stuff so far. Going to keep in mind that the exact mechanics are secret though, it’s a good point.
