God, there are times when I hate being right.

This really is one of them.

Everyone blames algorithms for creating filter bubbles - but people are way more effective at creating them for themselves.

@adders That said, what algorithms are good at is learning and then re-enforcing and amplifying the ones we’ve created.

@patrickrhone Agreed. But it's easier to blame the machine than your own (and all of our own) weakness.
