Watched this new documentary by Netflix today.
They have brought the creators of social media together in a room to talk about what’s the problem.
This one line sums it up really well.
YouTube’s former engineer who worked on recommendations said – “The algorithm is actually trying to find a few rabbit holes that are very powerful and then trying to find which rabbit hole is closest to your interest.”
What’s the solution?
I don’t think deleting social media is a solution.
If you use it right, it’s a blessing.
Well, turn of all push notifications – unless its important.
Set routines – don’t pick up phone for the first one hour of the day.
And few others. Watch this documentary.
I beleive it’s an important conversation to have.
